What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
