Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences.
