It's been more than two years since Cath Egan's home on the New South Wales south coast home went up in smoke, changing her life forever.

She is in the process of rebuilding her home in Rosedale, south of Batemans Bay with her husband Jack, after the Currowan fire swept through their property on New Year's Eve in 2019.
