Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
