Weatherside siding: The weatherboard can leak. If the house was built in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually are smooth or unbroken appearance.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the price of removal.
