Monolithic Plaster cladding: Used from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically feature a smooth or undulating surface.

Asbestos products: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is discovered in the location, seek professional guidance on the risk it poses, the best way it can be removed the length of time it will take to remove, and the price of removal.
