Red Flags & Warning Signs

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
