Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the home was built in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
