Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
