Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost of removal.
