What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
