Weatherside siding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your house was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have a smooth, unbroken finish.
