What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
