Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the house was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
