Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
