Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
