Red Flags & Warning Signs

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
