Red Flags & Warning Signs

Any of the following could be costly to solve:

Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They have been known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe when you know they are there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
