Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
