Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
