Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
