Roofs in Sunrise Beach: what we see and what we do
Sunrise Beach is the quieter family suburb south of Sunshine Beach, laid out mostly in the 1980s and 90s with brick homes and townhouses behind the dunes and up the slope to David Low Way. Low-pitch concrete tiles are the standard roof, many still on their first coating and now chalked to a pale grey. Later streets added flat-profile tiles, and rebuilds along the beachfront tend to be Colorbond or architect-designed metal. Townhouse complexes are common.
The beachfront streets are C5 surf-front under AS 4312 and the rest of the suburb sits within a kilometre of the surf, so salt reaches every roof. The thin factory coating on concrete tiles fades under UV over 15 to 25 years, and Sunrise Beach roofs are past that. Seaspray Restos pressure cleans, replaces rusted valleys, re-points and seals these roofs with primer and two membrane coats.
Things to watch on Sunrise Beach roofs
- Pale, porous 1980s and 90s concrete tiles soaking up salt rain
- Rust in valley irons and gutters within sight of the surf
- Cracked pointing on townhouse ridge runs
