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

Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences.
