Roofing services are about more than just putting new roofs on houses. Roofing contractors can repair a small section of your roof, restore the whole thing, or even fix your gutters and drainpipes. They can also check for any problems which may cause costly repairs down the track. They’re highly trained and experienced working at heights. Here are some specific inclusions and services you can request:
Roof installationWhether it’s a roof on a new home or a replacement roof on your existing home, a roofing contractor can make sure your home is dry and weatherproof. They’ll find out your preferred colour and order the materials, such as tiles or colorbond steel, needed to complete your roof. They can also organise
whirlybird installation to finish it off.
Roof restoration and cleaningWhether you need general clean or a full restoration and reseal, you can find a contractor who specialises in roofing restoration. Your roofing contractor will inspect your roof, identify any concerns and propose an action plan to have your roof looking as good as new. They may use high pressure hoses for built up dirt and grime, taking care not to damage the roof. Sometimes, you may just need a coat of paint and resealing to extend the life of your roof.
Roof repairsAll
roof repairs start with a safety assessment, along with equipment installed around the roof to ensure workers are safe. Workers will also wear harnesses to prevent falls. Your roofing contractor will assess any damage and provide a quote for repairs. Roof repairs may be simple or complex and can include
roof tile repair or replacement, rust repair, or replacing sealant or fasteners. Roof damage should be fixed quickly before it leads to leaking, water damage, and mould.
Gutter installation and repairsAn effective water diversion system (gutters and drainpipes) is important for several reasons, but especially the long-term maintenance of your roof. If your gutters are full, rusty, damaged or leaking, they won’t work and could cause future issues. Your contractor can help with
gutter installation,
gutter guard installation, and
downpipe installation, along with
gutter cleaning to keep everything in good working order.
Solar panel installation & repairNeed
solar panels installed on your roof? Your contractor will source the right parts, based on your energy requirements. They’ll check the optimal angle and direction to capture sunlight, before securely fixing the panels in place and connecting them to your system. Solar panels rarely have major problems or require extensive repairs, however, regular solar panel cleaning will help keep everything running efficiently. Your technician will also check the wiring and mountings for potential deterioration and may even test them to ensure everything is running well.
