Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: In the 1980s to the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences.
