Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard has been known to leak. If your household was constructed in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos products: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, in lino under fences. If asbestos is discovered in a property, get specialist advice about the risks it poses, the best way it could be removed, the length of time it will take to remove, and the cost of removal.
