Roofs on Aldinga Beach homes
Aldinga Beach combines holiday-style beach houses with a growing number of new family homes.
Aldinga Beach is about 43 km south of the CBD, in the City of Onkaparinga. Onkaparinga is Adelaide's largest council. It covers beachside suburbs from Christies Beach to Sellicks Beach, foothills suburbs built from the 1970s to the 1990s such as Aberfoyle Park, Flagstaff Hill, Happy Valley and Woodcroft, newer estates around Seaford and Aldinga, and the McLaren Vale wine region townships. Many of the foothills homes have concrete tile roofs that are due for attention.

What Aldinga Beach roofs have to cope with
Roofs near the beach in Aldinga Beach have to cope with salt air and the afternoon sea breeze. Salt attacks screws, flashings and metal sheets first, especially on the parts of the roof that rain doesn't wash clean. BlueScope recommends COLORBOND Ultra steel for roofs about 100 to 200 metres from breaking surf, and stainless steel closer still. Strong winds also find loose ridge caps and lifted sheets, so keep the pointing and fixings in good order.
Before you book
Check three things before you book roof work in Aldinga Beach. First, the licence: anyone contracting for building work in SA needs a building work contractor's licence, and jobs of $12,000 or more need a written contract. Second, approvals: repairs, restorations and like-for-like re-roofs usually don't need them. Third, what's on the roof: solar panels have to come off for most restorations and re-roofs, and an old grey fibre-cement roof may contain asbestos, which needs a licensed removalist for anything over 10 square metres.

Do I need council approval for roof work in Aldinga Beach?
Usually not for repairs, a restoration or a like-for-like re-roof. Changing the shape or structure of the roof, adding to it, or working on a heritage-listed home can need development approval, which in South Australia is lodged through the PlanSA portal. For Aldinga Beach, development applications are assessed by the City of Onkaparinga. The roofer quoting your job should tell you whether approval is needed.
What's the best roof near the beach in Aldinga Beach?
Tiles cope well with salt air as long as the ridge capping and flashings are kept in good order. For metal roofs, BlueScope recommends COLORBOND Ultra steel roughly 100 to 200 metres from breaking surf and stainless steel within about 100 metres, with compatible screws and flashings.
