Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
