Weatherside cladding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was constructed in the early 80s , it could have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it poses, the very best way it could be removed, how long it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
