Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
