What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
