Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your house was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
