Warnings & Red Flags

Black plastic pipe: Check for them if the home 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 even if you were aware that they were there.

Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
