Roof Repairs
How do I know if have a roof leak ?
The condition of your roof isn’t always easy to gauge just by looking at it. In order to determine what could potentially be a more serious problem, arranging a professional roof inspection is a must.
By identifying common roof problems before they start, you can save yourself a lot of trouble – and some hefty roof repair costs – down the line.
Roof inspections allow us to educate our customers so they understand their roof structure, its condition, and any immediate or potential problem areas and locate exactly where any damage may have occurred and repair strategies required to fix the issues.
Your roof is the first line of defence for your home and we often take roofs for granted, until there’s a roof leak of course.
Our skilled team specialises in the following repair services.
- Detecting & repairing leaks
- Penetrations, installations and repairs
- Box gutters repairs and replacements
- Flashings and cappings repairs and replacements
- Gutter and roof cleaning
- Wall cladding repairs and replacements
- Fascia covers repairs and replacements
- Rain heads/sumps installations
What are the common causes of roof leaks ?
1. Missing, dislodged or slipped tiles
Even if the opening is small, a missing or dislodged roof tile (or two, or ten!) could lead to some pretty serious water damage in your home if not replaced before the next rainfall.
Roof tiles can slip or become dislodged for a number of reasons. Common causes include strong winds, heavy rains, poor workmanship or general foot traffic from tradesmen who may have been up there to install aircon units or do other maintenance work.
A comprehensive roof inspection will enable you to determine exactly what’s going on.
2. Blocked gutters
Blocked gutters can come about for all sorts of reasons, but they can usually be chalked up to one thing, debris.
Whether it’s leaves, dirt, rubbish or broken tiles, blocked gutters can be disastrous for your roof.
To allow for proper drainage, clearing out the gutters is key.
A roof inspection will enable you to determine what needs to be done to stop the blocked gutters from re occurring.
3. Moss or plant growth
While moss and plant growth can look pretty, neither are any good for the structural integrity of your roof.
Moss buildup can cause your roof’s tiles to weaken, deteriorating them over time and leading to constricted water flow and broken tiles.
A roof inspection will enable you to determine how to best deal with this plant growth and eliminate so future issues are not encountered.
4. Weathering or natural aging
All things age in time, and your roof is no different. Being exposed to the elements 24/7 can leave it looking a little worse for wear.
Porous tiles caused by weathering and natural aging could potentially allow water to leak through in places where it shouldn’t.
A roof inspection will enable you to determine if the areas simply need resealing, or tiles may need replacing.
5. Storm damage
After a big storm, there could be damage to your roof that you don’t even know about. The first step is to contact your Insurance Company and lodge your claim.
Generally the insurance team will arrange a plumber to carry out a roof inspection to take a look will ensure that any damage, including clogged gutters and broken or missing tiles, can be fixed as quickly as possible.
Make a regular professional roof inspection your priority !
