We look for structural problems and any indications that the property is not in good repair and issues caused by delayed maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
