Weatherside siding: The weatherboard is known to leak. If the household was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating appearance.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, how long it would take to remove, and the cost for removal.
