Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
