Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your house was constructed or rebuilt around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it might be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost for removal.
