Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
