Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
