Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
