Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
