Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
