Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences.
