Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
