Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
