Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your home was built in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally feature a smooth or undulating finish.

Asbestos construction: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing.
