What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
