Warnings & Red Flags

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house 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 that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 1980s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

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

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
