Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
