Warning Signs & Red Flags

The following issues could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
