What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
