This will make sure that house buyers don’t have unpleasant unexpected costs and also gives you the chance to negotiate a lower price.

What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
