Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

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

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
