Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the 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.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
