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

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it could be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
