Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages that is caused by this type of pipe, when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it can be removed how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
