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

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.
