Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If the home was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.
