Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

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

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
