Weathersideexterior cladding: Weatherside weatherboard has been known to leak. If the house was built in the 1980s, it could have Weatherside.

Cladding made of Plaster: It was popular from the 1980s to the mid-2000s Many "leaky homes" have this cladding. Walls on the exterior typically have a smooth, unbroken appearance.
