What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
