Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
