Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
