Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
