Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following might cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: Check for them if your home 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: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it might be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
