Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
