Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
