Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
