Warning Signs & Red Flags

Each of these could be costly to deal with:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies will not cover any damage that is caused by this type of pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
