Cladding made of Plaster: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken surface.

Asbestos construction: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found at an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
