Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fences.
