Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing.
