Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
