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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences.
