What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
