Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the 80s, it might have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the best way it could be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
