Roofs in Meridan Plains: what we see and what we do
Meridan Plains sits on the flat land west of Kawana around Corbould Park racecourse and Meridan State College. Estate housing arrived through the 2000s and 2010s: mostly single-storey homes with flat-profile concrete tiles on the earlier stages and Colorbond on the later ones, plus acreage properties on the rural fringe with older tile and metal roofs. The first estate roofs are now near 20 years old and their coatings are fading.
The suburb is roughly three to six kilometres from the surf, placing it in the C3 coastal band under AS 4312, so salt corrosion is slower than on the coast strip. Rain is the main load: February alone averages over 200 mm on the coast, and flat land means water sits on low-pitched roofs. Seaspray Restos cleans, repairs and coats tile and metal roofs here with primer and two membrane coats.
Things to watch on Meridan Plains roofs
- Early chalking on 2000s flat-profile tiles
- Moss along the laps of low-pitched tile roofs
- Rust on older Colorbond and gutters on acreage properties
