Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If the household was built in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos products: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be in roofs, ceilings underneath lino, or fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
