Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was built 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: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
