Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known to leak. If the house was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken surface.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
