What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
