Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
