Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
