Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s until the 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 poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
