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

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.
