What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
