Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard can leak. If your house was constructed in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos construction: Widely used since the around the mid-1940s up to the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing.
