Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are 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 is known to leak. If your home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
