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

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, how it could be removed, the length of time it will require to remove, as well as the removal cost.
