Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost for removal.
