Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
