Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following might be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re 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: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
