Black plastic pipe: You should look for them if your household was built or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it poses, the best way it can be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
