Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies will not cover any damage caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
