Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If the household was built in the early 80s it could have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: In the late 1980s through the mid 2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls generally have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in the property, seek expert advice about the risks it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would take to removeit, and the cost for removal.
