Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
