Black plastic piping: Check for them if the home was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
