Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your home was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed the time it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
