The best time to do any roof work is Perth’s drier months. It is during this time when there is obviously less risk of rainfall and therefore greater opportunity to complete the work uninterrupted. It is also the best time to complete any ridge cap work without risk of rain washing out any fresh pointing and also the best time to paint without delays due to slow drying roof coating times and unpredictable weather patterns common in the wetter months.

The drier months are really when all roofs should be prepared for the wetter months ahead to avoid any surprise roof leaks we commonly see when the first winter storms arrive. We also complete most of our roof plumbing, guttering and downpipe work during in the drier months to avoid the disruptions from winter storms. Not surprisingly, the wetter months are usually our busiest for repairs due to the number of leaks that develop so the drier months are a good time to get in early and complete any roof repairs, roof plumbing, roof restorations and roof replacements before the busy period kicks off.

Ultimately, it’s never too late as long as it’s not too late!
 
Don’t put off having your roof inspected, preventative maintenance is far better than waiting for a breakdown!

I am often asked the question, “If I was building a new house in Perth, what type of roofing material would I choose and what are the advantages and disadvantages of each”? Lets start with aesthetics. I personally like the look of clay roof tiles on a classic Hamptons style house and Colorbond on a more modern or even federation style house, but that’s just my opinion. So it really depends on the style of house you choose and your personal preference in color. White roof tiles in my opinion don’t look great, but white Colorbond does and visa versa, black tiles look great but black colorbond doesn’t, which again is my personal opinion. When it comes to the advantages and disadvantages of each roofing material, I think the best way is to just list them in a generalized manner as I have below:

So overall, each roofing system has advantages and disadvantages and the list above should help give an insight into the pros and cons and help you choose what type of roof is best for you. If you are building a new house, you really have a great opportunity to select a roof that best suits your house from an architectural perspective, as well what’s best for your climate and location (eg proximity to coast, ease of access for maintenance etc). Whatever roof you choose, there is no such thing as maintenance free, so expect to spend some money over time to
keep your roof looking great and free from leaks.

We have just completed a roof replacement in the Perth Hills suburb of Glen Forrest, changing from cement tiles to Colorbond. The owner no longer wanted the roof maintenance problems associated with broken tiles, cracked ridge caps and subsequent leaks and couldn’t wait to see them off the roof and thrown in the bin (hence the photo of the tiles in the truck!).

Your roof is not meant to leak, period. But when a roof does leak it can cause significant damage to the building in which it is meant to protect.

We have just replaced a section of a tiled roof at Mazenod College in Lesmurdie as they had persistent and ongoing problems with the roof leaking. No matter what they did to address the issues, every year new leaks would appear. The main problem with the roof was the tiles.

We have just completed another restoration on a faded Colorbond metal roof in Fremantle. The client called us concerned about the condition of his roof as the colour had all but disappeared in many areas giving the roof an unsightly and patchy appearance.  Our restoration work took the tired and faded roof back to its former glory and has extended the life of the roof for many more years to come.

A roof restoration is a great way to transform your tired looking roof, fix the leaks and extend its life. We can restore both metal and tiled roofing and make them look great again. We have just completed another roof restoration in Maida Vale, Perth, this time an old, faded Colorbond metal roof.

We were recently called out to investigate a section of roof in the Perth hills that had persistently leaked for years causing damage to the internal rooms, despite being “repaired” by several different contractors. The roof and flashings were in poor condition and most of the screws were rusty. Also, the solar hot water system was due to be replaced and the associated copper pipes rerouted so they weren’t laying on the roof and causing galvanic corrosion.
