Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences.
