What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
