Weathersideexterior cladding: This weatherboard is known to leak. If your home was built in the 80s, it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally are smooth or unbroken finish.

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