What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
