Plaster-style monolithic cladding: Used in the 1980s until the mid-2000s A lot of "leaky homes" have this cladding. Exterior walls typically have an unbroken or smooth finish.

Asbestos building materials: Widely used since the mid-1940s to mid-1980s. It can be found in roofs, ceilings under lino, fences. If asbestos is found in an address, you should seek out expert assistance on the danger it poses, the very best way it can be removed, the time it would be to get rid of, and the price of removal.
