Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
