Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
