Roofs on Auldana homes
Auldana is about 8 km east of the CBD, in the City of Burnside. Burnside is established and leafy, with homes ranging from 1920s villas and bungalows to post-war houses on generous blocks, plus large modern rebuilds in suburbs like Tusmore, Toorak Gardens and Leabrook. Roofs here range from terracotta and slate on older homes to concrete tiles and Colorbond. Big trees mean gutters and valleys fill with leaves, and the foothills suburbs such as Mount Osmond, Stonyfell and Skye add steep blocks to the mix.

What Auldana roofs have to cope with
Auldana is cooler and wetter than the plains, so tiles grow moss and lichen faster and tall trees fill gutters and valleys with leaves. Much of the area is bushfire-prone. Embers get in through gaps at the ridges, valleys and eaves, so sealing them, fitting gutter guard and keeping gutters clear are all worth doing. If your property has a bushfire attack level (BAL) rating, ask how it affects the materials for a new roof. Steep blocks can also mean extra scaffolding.
Before you book
If your home was built before about 1990 and has a grey fibre-cement roof, assume it may contain asbestos: more than 10 square metres must be removed by a licensed removalist. For everything else, the rules are simple. Make sure whoever you hire holds a South Australian building work contractor's licence and gives you a written contract for work of $12,000 or more. Council approval usually isn't needed in Auldana for repairs, restorations or a like-for-like re-roof. Parts of the City of Burnside are within Historic Area or Character Area Overlays under the Planning and Design Code. Like-for-like repairs are rarely an issue, but changing the roof's material, colour or shape where it can be seen from the street may need development approval. If you have solar panels, the quote should include an electrician to take them off and refit them.

Do I need council approval for roof work in Auldana?
Usually not for repairs, a restoration or a like-for-like re-roof.

Like-for-like repairs are rarely an issue, but changing the roof's material, colour or shape where it can be seen from the street may need development approval.

How do I get my Auldana roof ready for bushfire season?
