Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
