Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

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

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
