Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
