Take Care to Look Out For

The following issues could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
