Red Flags & Warning Signs

The following issues could be costly to solve:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if the house was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies are unlikely to cover damages caused by this pipe, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside siding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, the best way it can be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
