What To Be On the Look Out For

Any of the following might be costly to solve:

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

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the price of removal.
