Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
