Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences.
