Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
