Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
