Take Care to Look Out For

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
