The reconstruction has seen widespread adoption of ember-guard systems, non-combustible roofing, and improved building standards designed to withstand future fire events. As one of the most isolated towns in Victoria, with only a single road in and out, dependable roofing is paramount for this resilient community that continues its recovery.
