Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
