Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
