What To Be On the Look Out For

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
