What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
