Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
