Warning Signs & Red Flags

Any of the following might be costly to deal with:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the removal cost.
