Tile Roof Repairs & Installs
Tiled Roofs have a lifespan of approximately 60 years if maintained on a regular basis.
As your roof deteriorates and ages over time you may encounter some of the following problems.
Broken Roof Tiles – These are common and can occur from such things as weathering, ground movement, or even walking on the roof. Broken tiles can lead to water leaks during a rainfall
Broken Ridgecapping – This can also occur from age and weathering, ground movement or cheap and old materials use prior. If the ridgecapping breaks down it can also lead to leaking
Bedding & Pointing – This used to be done with a combination of sand & cement. Again, over time, the pointing breaks down with weathering and/or ground movement. We now use flexible pointing which is a premixed flexible pointing compound as a replacement. This enables it to flex in harmony with the roofs movements without cracking or breaking away.
Broken Tile Clips – Tile clips are commonly known to break. When they do it can cause blockages and clog up so that water is unable to flow through.
Valley Clips – Can also break, and when broken can cause tiles in the valleys to slip leading to water leaks.
Sarking – Is a pliable membrane that sits under your roof tiles, like a protective second skin. It helps insulation work more efficiently and protects your home from storms, rain, dust condensation and bush fire embers. As sarking ages it can tear or be damaged and will need to be repaired to prevent leaking or damage to your home’s structure
Valley Seal – This is a foam product designed to prevent water entering the roof cavity during a heavy rain fall. It can deteriorate over a long period and eventually will need to be replaced.
