Walk Melrose and you mostly see 1920s–1950s weatherboard and elevated hillside homes. The cladding we quote is weatherboard and stucco — pressure and mix change with that, not a suburb average.
Melrose sits above the eastern bays with mixed sun and wind. North roofs green up; the downhill weatherboard wall is usually the dirtier face.
Most Melrose exteriors are due every 12–18 months. Book gutters or roof treatment in the same visit if trees or moss are already part of the job.
