Weatherside cladding: This weatherboard can leak. If the house was constructed in the early 80s , it may have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s and into the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos products: Used widely from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It may be on ceilings, roofs, under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert guidance on the risk it presents, how it might be removed, how long it would require to remove, as well as the price of removal.
