Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
