Roof maintenance is often overlooked with an “out of sight out of mind” attitude. The simple fact that most people don’t check over their roof is all the more reason to have your roof inspected. Something as simple as a cracked roof tile can lead to a significant roof leak and consequently damaged and stained ceilings, mould and potential water ingress into living spaces damaging flooring, furniture and electrical appliances. A roof leak repair should take the highest priority on your list of home maintenance.
As a cement tiled roof ages, as to does the protective coating on the tile surface and thus a well maintained roof must also include reapplication of a roof paint coating to protect the tiles and reduce water absorption by the tiles. Similarly, metal roofing will over time loose its protective coating and begin to rust. A well maintained metal or colorbond roof also means painting the roof on a 20 year basis especially in our extreme Perth weather conditions. Roofing that is regularly maintained and painted will last far longer and prevent water ingress and associated damage to the underlying structure. A house roof that has been neglected may be beyond a roof repair or roof restoration and will require a roof replacement. The roof replacements we have completed in Perth to date have always been on roofing that has been poorly maintained and or caused significant and ongoing damage to the underlying structure. Sometimes a roof replacement is the only option for a poorly maintained or poorly designed roof.
Damage Caused By A Neglected Roof
Foregoing roof maintenance and roof restoration may save in the short term, but if you do not maintain your roof you can set yourself up for some costly problems in the future. Constant water seepage will eventually work down from the attic to the very foundation of the house, causing costly damage along the way. We have seen everything from rotted roof timbers, termite infestations (due to damp conditions), collapsed ceilings and destroyed fancy cornicing, blown or shorted electrical fuses, damaged furniture, destroyed antique piano, bubbling and peeling of plastered/gyprock walls, damaged flooring/skirting and the list goes on.
