Weatherside siding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.
Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating appearance.
Asbestos products: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences.
