What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
