Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
