We look for structural problems and any indications that the building has a leaky structure or issues that result from deferred maintenance such as weatherboards turning rotten due to peeling paint or areas where there is damp or mould.

Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
