Black plastic piping: Look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your house was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the removal cost.
