Warning Signs & Red Flags

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
