Weatherside cladding: The weatherboard is known for its leaks. If your home was constructed in the early 80s , it could be equipped with Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used in the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically are smooth or unbroken finish.

Asbestos building materials: Used widely from mid-1940s until the mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fencing. If asbestos is found at the property, seek expert advice on what risk it presents, how it can be removed, how long it will take to removeit, and the cost of removal.
