What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed the time it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
