Roofs in Grey Lynn: what we see
Grey Lynn is mostly early-1900s villas and bungalows, renovated many times over, with some 1960s–70s flats.
Corrugated iron is everywhere here, often on its second or third replacement, along with low-pitch lean-to roofs and internal gutters added during renovations. Rusted laps, failed lean-to flashings and leaking valleys are the usual call-outs.
Much of Grey Lynn is covered by special character rules, so we keep the corrugated profile and street-facing details when re-roofing.

Grey Lynn roofing questions
Could my Grey Lynn roof contain asbestos?
Original corrugated iron and clay tiles don’t contain asbestos, but fibre-cement lean-tos, flues and soffits added between the 1940s and 80s can. We test anything suspect first.
Should I repair or replace my roof?
Iron that has rusted through at the laps or nail holes is past patching. If it’s sound, new fixings, flashings and paint can add years. Either way we keep the original profile.
Does being in Grey Lynn affect my roof?
Much of Grey Lynn is covered by special character rules, so we keep the corrugated profile and street-facing details when re-roofing.
