Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
