Take Care to Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the home was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

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

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
