Storm Zone and Coastal Roofing on the Gold Coast

• The Gold Coast is in Wind Region B; roofing must comply with Queensland Development Code (QDC) wind uplift requirements; Colorbond steel with screw fixings is strongly preferred over clout nails for storm resistance in Queensland
• Gold Coast beachfront and hinterland suburbs within 1km of the coast (Surfers Paradise, Broadbeach, Mermaid Beach, Palm Beach, Coolangatta) should specify Colorbond ULTRA marine-grade steel to resist saltwater corrosion; this applies to all visible metal roofing and flashing within the coastal zone

Asbestos Roof Removal on the Gold Coast
