Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
