Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was constructed in the 80s, it could have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the 1980s until the mid-2000s many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences.
