Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
