What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
