Cladding made of Plaster: In the 1980s until the mid-2000s, many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
