Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
