Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
