Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
