What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
