Melbourne weather can expose weak points fast—especially at junctions, valleys, and older sections of the roofline. Whether you have a tiled roof or a metal roof, most leaks come down to a handful of common failure areas. We repair those areas properly, with attention to the details that keep water moving safely off the roof.
Leaking Roof Repairs
When a roof leaks, the entry point isn’t always directly above the ceiling mark. Water can travel along battens, flashings, and roof sheets or tiles before it shows up inside. That’s why leak tracing matters. We look for the most likely pathways—valleys, penetrations, junction points, and worn sections—and then carry out targeted repairs that stop the leak rather than masking it.
Tile Roof Repairs
Tiled roofs can fail in different ways over time. Tiles crack, slip, or go missing after strong winds. Ridge capping can loosen, and pointing can deteriorate, allowing water to creep in around the highest points of the roof. We replace damaged tiles, secure loose sections, and address ridge capping issues when needed so the roof is stable, aligned, and weather-tight again.
Metal Roof Repairs
Metal roofs are durable, but they still need proper detailing and maintenance. Common issues include loose fasteners, worn washers, sheet movement at joins, and surface rust that spreads if ignored. We repair problem areas, replace faulty fixings where required, and handle junction work so water is directed away from vulnerable edges and penetrations.
Valleys, Flashings, And Roof Junctions
These are the areas where roofs most commonly leak. Valleys carry concentrated water flow, and flashings protect the transitions around chimneys, skylights, vents, and walls. If these areas are damaged, poorly sealed, or simply worn, leaks can appear even if the rest of the roof looks fine. Our repairs focus on restoring proper water control, because that’s what prevents repeat call-outs.
