Roof Restoration Montville

Local knowledge

Roofs in Montville: what we see and what we do

Montville sits on the Blackall Range at about 400 metres above sea level, with 1,092 residents spread between the village strip and the acreage along the escarpment. Older cottages and shops carry corrugated iron, mid-century homes have terracotta tiles, and the 1970s to 90s houses set back from Main Street use concrete tiles. Newer homes on the view blocks tend to be Colorbond. Fog and cloud sit on the range for days.

Montville is C3 inland under AS 4312, but height and rain make up for the lack of salt. Nearby Maleny records over 2,000 mm a year, and roofs here stay wet long enough for moss and lichen to cover whole planes. Terracotta holds its colour but loses its pointing; concrete tiles lose both. Seaspray Restos cleans, re-beds and re-points, replaces cracked tiles and seals with primer and two membrane coats.

Things to watch on Montville roofs

• Thick moss and lichen on shaded and south-facing roof planes
• Cracked and missing pointing on older terracotta ridges
• Rusted gutters and laps on iron cottage roofs
