Black plastic pipe: Look for them if the household was constructed or re-plumbed in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this pipe, even if you were aware that they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
