Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
