Roofing in Inner North: What You Need to Know
The Inner North - Ainslie, Braddon, O'Connor, Lyneham, Dickson, Turner, Downer, Hackett and Campbell - is a mix of interwar and early post-war housing with pockets of dense newer development along the light rail corridor. Much of the original stock carries terracotta tile on steep pitches, built when roofs were designed to shed rain quickly and long before sarking was standard practice. That absence of sarking matters: on an unsarked roof, wind-driven rain that gets past a lifted tile has nothing between it and the ceiling. Homes on the Mount Ainslie and Mount Majura slopes take the worst of the westerly and north-westerly wind loading, and the same slopes bring heavy eucalypt litter and a real ember exposure during fire weather.
Local roof context
Steep-pitched interwar terracotta, frequently unsarked; wind loading and tile lift on the Mount Ainslie and Majura slopes; heavy eucalypt litter in gutters and valleys; ember exposure at the reserve interface.
