What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
