Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
