Weatherside siding: This weatherboard can leak. If your home was constructed in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
