Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences.
