What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re 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 siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
