Take Care to Look Out For

Each of these could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: You should look for them if the house was built or re-plumbed around the late 1970s to early 1980s. They are known to leak. Insurance companies won’t cover any damages caused by this piping, when you know they are there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, the very best way it can be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
