Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your 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 that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
