What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
