Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed how long it would take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
