Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
