Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
