Roofs in Kenilworth: what we see and what we do
Kenilworth is a dairy town in the Mary Valley, on the far side of the Blackall Range from the coast. The township has timber homes and shops under corrugated iron, a few mid-century houses with terracotta or concrete tiles, and the surrounding farms carry big iron roofs on houses, dairies and machinery sheds. Colorbond has taken over on newer homes and rural builds. Most of the iron out here has been up for decades and shows it.
Kenilworth is the most inland town we service, well within the C3 band that AS 4312 says can extend up to 50 kilometres inland with prevailing winds. Salt is minor; rain, valley fog, sun and storms are the load. Surface rust on old galvanised iron, blocked gutters full of leaf litter and moss on shaded tiles are the usual finds. Seaspray Restos travels to Kenilworth for metal and tile roof restoration, repairs and re-pointing.
