Roofs in Sunshine Coast Hinterland
The hinterland is wetter and shadier than the coast. Maleny averages 2,000.8 millimetres of rain a year at 425 metres, against about 1,490 at the Sunshine Coast Airport, and the range towns of Montville, Mapleton and Flaxton sit in cloud for weeks at a time in winter. That means moss and lichen on any tile roof with a tree over it, mortar that stays wet and fails early, and gutters that never dry out. Salt is less of an issue than on the coast, but the AS 4312 C3 zone can extend well inland on the prevailing winds.
The housing is older and more varied too. Nambour grew around the sugar mill from 1897, Palmwoods and Yandina are railway towns from the 1890s, and there is more terracotta, more corrugated iron on Queenslanders and more 1960s and 70s fibro out here than on the coast. We restore terracotta and concrete, coat metal, replace rusted valleys and re-point ridges from Nambour and Woombye out to Kenilworth and up to Cooroy and Pomona. Any asbestos-cement roof is inspected and referred on; we never pressure clean fibro.
