What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
