Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If the home was built in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s and into the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found placed on roofs, ceilings, in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at a property, get specialist advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to remove, and the removal cost.
