Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
