Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the home was built in the early 80s , it might have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice about the risks it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
