What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

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

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
