What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
