Weathersideexterior cladding: The weatherboard can leak. If your household was constructed in the early 80s it may have Weatherside.

The Plaster monolithic style: Used from the late 1980s through the mid 2000s A lot of "leaky houses" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have an unbroken or smooth surface.

Asbestos building materials: The use of asbestos was widespread from mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It could be found installed on roofs, ceilings under lino, fencing. If you find asbestos in an address, you should seek out expert advice on what risk it poses, how it can be removed, the length of time it will be to get rid of, and the removal cost.
