Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
