Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
