Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the 1980s, it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found placed on roofs, ceilings, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it poses, how it could be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the cost for removal.
