Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences.
