Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
