What matters for building & renovation in Burnie

  • Burnie averages 947 mm of rain across 158 rain days a year, with 30 of those days dropping 10 mm or more. That is a genuinely wet coastal climate and outdoor trades lose more days to weather here than almost anywhere else the mainland benchmarks were written for.

  • Burnie's mean 3pm wind speed is 17.1 km/h year round, peaking at 19.1 km/h in October. Combined with 158 rain days, wind driven rain into flashings, eaves and window seals is the failure mode a Burnie roofer sees most.

  • Tasmania scrapped the annual fire safety check. The Building Act 2016 replaced it with an approved schedule of maintenance for the building's essential building services, prepared by the owner and approved by a building surveyor, with maintenance done to that schedule rather than simply once a year.

  • Under section 206 of the Building Act 2016 a Tasmanian responsible owner must keep the maintenance records and produce them to an authorised officer or to the Tasmania Fire Service Chief Officer on request. Penalties reach 100 penalty units for an individual and 500 for a body corporate.
