Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
