Roofing in Erina: brick-and-tile heartland hitting restoration age
Erina and Erina Heights were built in the brick-and-tile boom: solid family homes whose concrete tile roofs are now 30 to 50 years old. Sheltered in the valley, they escape the worst salt, but the trade-off is trees: leaf litter loading valleys and gutters, and moss and lichen thriving on shaded southern faces. This is prime restoration country. Most Erina roofs we inspect need cleaning, repointing and recoating rather than replacement, and they come up looking new. It's also gutter-guard country, for obvious leafy reasons.
