Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. 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 household was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
