We look for structural problems or signs that the house is a leaky building and issues caused by delayed maintenance, such as weatherboards that are rotting due to peeling paint and areas with damp or mould.

Warnings & Red Flags

Any of the following could be expensive to sort out:

Black plastic piping: Look for them if your house was constructed or re-plumbed from the late 1970s until the early 1980s. They’re known for leaking. Insurers are unlikely cover damage caused by this piping, if you knew they were there.

Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in the property, seek expert advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
