Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
