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

Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used from the 1980s until the mid-2000s Many "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos construction: It was widely used from the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It is often found on ceilings, roofs, underneath lino, or fences. If asbestos is found in the location, seek professional assistance on the danger it presents, how it can be removed how long it will require to remove, as well as the cost of removal.
