Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
