Take Care to Look Out For

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
