Take Care to Look Out For

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
