Bushfire-Ready Monier Tiles: The 2026 Roofing Solution for High-Risk Areas

09 January 2026

Higgins Roofing offers premium bushfire-ready Monier tiles, the 2026 roofing solution for durable, compliant, and safe roofs in high-risk Australian areas.

As Australia faces longer and hotter fire seasons, homeowners in bushfire-prone areas are focusing on resilient roofing ahead of 2026. True protection comes from a complete system where roof tiles, under-tile sarking, ember-resistant vents, precise flashing, and compliant detailing work together. Higgins Roofing specialises in supplying, installing, and re-roofing bushfire-ready Monier tiles to provide durable protection without compromising on style.

Why Choose Bushfire-Ready Monier Tiles for High-Risk Areas

Monier’s concrete and terracotta tiles are non-combustible, durable, and designed for Australian conditions. When installed as part of an integrated roof system, they provide a reliable outer layer that helps resist ember attack and radiant heat. Their mass and profile enhance weatherproofing, and individual tiles are easy to replace after severe weather events, reducing long-term maintenance costs and disruption.

Tiled roofs work seamlessly with continuous sarking, compliant flashings, and ember-guard mesh to reduce gaps where embers can enter. This creates an ideal balance of performance and style, combining the elegance of premium tiles with components that improve resilience and meet strict building standards. For both new builds and upgrades, homeowners can trust a proven product range installed by experts in bushfire-compliant design.
