Weatherside siding: Weatherside weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the house was constructed in the early 80s it might have Weatherside.

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: It was popular from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s, many "leaky houses" have this cladding. The exterior walls usually have a smooth, unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It can be found installed on roofs, ceilings in lino under fences. If asbestos is found at the location, seek professional advice on what risk it poses, how it might be removed, the time it would take to removeit, and the price of removal.
