What To Be On the Look Out For

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
