What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
