Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist guidance on the risk it poses, how it might be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
