Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed the time it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
