Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
