What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
