What To Be On the Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
