What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
