Black plastic pipe: Check for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed between the late 1970s and the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
