Black plastic piping: Check for them if the household was constructed or rebuilt in the late 1970s or early 1980s. They’re known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, in the event that you knew they were there.

Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the household was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice about the risks it poses, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
