The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
