What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
