Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
