Red Flags & Warning Signs

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if your home was constructed or rebuilt from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
