Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built 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 pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the removal cost.
