Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the the mid-1940s through the mid-1980s. It could be found in roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If you find asbestos in the location, seek professional advice on what risk it presents, how it could be removed, the time it would take to remove, and the cost of removal.
