About this service

Keep the rain out and the value in.

A leaking or rusted roof can cause serious damage if it’s left too long. We repair and replace roofs on homes and commercial buildings, from fixing a single leak to re-sheeting the whole roof or putting up new trusses.

Whatever the job, we start by inspecting the roof properly, so you get an honest recommendation and a written quote before any work starts.

What it involves

What we do on your roof

01

Leak detection and repairs

We find where the water is getting in and fix the cause, not just seal over it.

02

Rust treatment and roof painting

Rust is treated before it spreads, then the roof is painted to protect it.

03

Replacing damaged sheets

Rusted or broken sheets are replaced and fixed down securely.

04

New trusses and full re-roofing

When the structure has had its day, we put up new trusses and a new roof.

05

Gutters and flashings

Water is led away from your walls and foundations, where it belongs.

06

Inspections before the rainy season

We check the roof so small problems don’t turn into big ones.

Before: rust right through the sheets

Why you need it

Signs your roof needs attention

Roof problems start small and grow quietly. If you notice any of these, it’s worth a look before the next big storm.

  • Water marks or damp patches on ceilings and walls
  • Rust spots, holes or flaking paint on the sheets
  • Loose, lifted or broken sheets after wind
  • Gutters that overflow or drip against the walls
  • A sagging roofline or cracked trusses

The upside

What a sound roof gives you

Protects everything under it

No more water damage to ceilings, walls, wiring and furniture.

Adds value to your home

A sound roof is one of the first things a buyer or valuer looks at.

Fewer repair bills

Fixing a roof early costs far less than fixing the damage later.

Peace of mind

Sleep easy through the next storm, knowing the roof will hold.

Before & after

From rusted through to like new

Damaged sheets replaced, the roof treated and then painted. Drag the line to compare.
