Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
