Warning Signs & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
