What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
