Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are 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: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
