Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

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

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