Warnings & Red Flags

Each of these could cost a lot to resolve:

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
