Why book a local roof repairer through Airtasker?

Fixing your roof when it has problems is a vital task, perhaps more important than any other house repair job. Depending on the severity of the damage and the length of time it goes untreated, roof problems can cause catastrophic damage to your house and its frame.

On the other end of the scale, even a small leak can cause problems. From unsightly water damage to mould and other issues, without fixing the roof you’ll never be able to stop these issues recurring.

Because of the speedy nature of roof repair jobs, posting your requirements on Airtasker can be a real time saver. As soon as your ad is approved, roofing professionals near you will be able to get in touch and you can start the process of weatherproofing your home.

Read roof restoration reviews

Every Tasker on our site is reviewed and rated by people who hire them, meaning you’ll get an honest overview of their work habits. This helps you compare candidates and get the best worker for your job.

You determine the price

One of the difficulties of getting someone to do work on your roof is finding someone to provide a reasonable and timely quote. On Airtasker, you set the price upfront and work from there.

Fast responses from roof repairers

If you have a problem with your roof, chances are that you want it fixed immediately. Once your job on Airtasker has been approved, you can start speaking to roof repair professionals in your area to get your job started.

Make sure they’re insured

Although many jobs on Airtasker are automatically covered by our insurance, for jobs like roof repair that are deemed as high risk you have to make sure your Tasker has their own insurance.

Top Roof Repair related questions

While there are sometimes obvious signs of a leak, other times you need to be more observant. If you see stains appearing in your ceiling or down walls, it's likely that there's a leak somewhere in your roof. Even a minor leak can create major damage over time, so it's best to act quickly.

A leaking roof can cause cosmetic and structural damage to a property. Water can cause mould and mildew to grow, rot frames and damage your insulation and ceilings.

Small areas of damage or leaks can often be repaired, but all roofs need to be replaced at some point. If your roof hasn't been redone in 20 years, it might be time for a new one. A roof repair expert will be able to tell you when they look at your damage if it's a small fix or an entire redo.

Small roof repair jobs can be done in as little as an hour, but larger jobs can require multiple visits over a number of days.

Normally, yes. Unsightly damage or reports that show there is damage to the roof can be a turn-off for buyers, so it may lead to fewer bids and less competition. By making all required repairs to your home, in your roof and elsewhere, you can inspire confidence in your buyers.

Roof repair costs change depending on how much works needs to be done, so you should always ask someone to look at your property before agreeing to a quote. On Airtasker, the average cost of a roof repair job is $200.

What do roof repairers do?

Before agreeing to hire anyone to repair your roof, you should make sure they have a look at your property. Otherwise, it’s incredibly difficult to gauge how much work needs to be done. 

Once they have sized up the job, they will get to work on the repairs. Depending on the cause of the damage, this may require them to work on sealing up the inside of your roof or they may need to get on top to work with the tiles, shingle or sheeting that you have on top of your house. 

As well as focussing on your roof, there are other tasks that go hand-in-hand with roof repair that you may need to consider. 

Roof tile repair

While roof repair is a nice catch-all, there are times when you need a specialist for your job. If you’ve got problems with your tiles, you can hire a roof tile repair expert to take care of things for you. They’ll assess the damage, clean off any dirt or mould and replace broken tiles so that your home looks nicer and reduce the chance of leaks. 

Gutter installation

Sometimes people mistake roof issues for gutter issues because without adequate drainage your property can become damaged. Hiring someone to replace or install gutters is a simple and inexpensive way to fix this problem. 

Gutter cleaning

Gutter problems don’t always mean you need to replace them. Sometimes a gutter cleaning services may be all you need. In cases like this, someone will come to your property and remove any leaves, sticks or other debris that’s clogging up your gutters to improve your drainage.

Property maintenance

Sometimes the fact that a property has roof damage is a sign that there could be other maintenance issues as well. If you’re not the DIY type, or you’re an investor with a property you can’t get to very often, hiring property maintenance services can help you. This way you can get small tasks like lawn mowing looked after and any essential repairs will be done before they get to worrying states.

Lawnton QLD 4501, Australia

6th Oct 2026

I am seeking an experienced roofing contractor for a relatively small repair and maintenance job on a two-storey residential property with a conventional tiled roof. The budget is indicative, please assess the described work and make the best offer based on the actual scope. Work anticipated: • Repointing/resealing ridge and hip caps where required • Inspecting for cracked, broken or defective tiles • Replacing defective tiles contributing to water leakage • Identifying any other essential repairs required to prevent water ingress Importantly, a quantity of suitable replacement roof tiles is already available at the property. These can be used for replacement tiles where appropriate, potentially saving the contractor the cost and time of sourcing matching tiles. Any additional tiles required can be quoted separately. This is NOT a full roof restoration, roof painting or pressure-cleaning job. I am looking for a straightforward, practical repair solution. Roof access: The property is two storeys, with access available from the balcony adjoining the kitchen. The contractor is to determine the appropriate safe access and fall-protection arrangements and provide any equipment required. Timing: I can be very flexible. If you have a cancellation or an unexpected opening in your schedule, I may be able to accommodate the work at short notice. A competitive price for fitting the job into an existing schedule would be appreciated. I am a pensioner working within a limited budget, so price is an important consideration. Please only offer if you are an experienced roofing contractor with appropriate licensing/qualifications and current public liability insurance for this type of work. I would prefer the roof to be inspected before the final price is agreed. Photos and further information can be provided to shortlisted Taskers. 

Roof Repair Lounge and Bedroom

$1,500

Greenacre NSW 2190, Australia

5th Oct 2026

Roof repairs and maintenance required I am looking for a roofer/roof plumber to complete maintenance works identified in a GIO insurance assessment Affected area Bedroom upstairs with water entry occurring around the bedroom window. Front lounge room: Water ingress staining to the ceiling GIO's assessment found that the likely cause of water entry is a roof tile with a large broken corner directly above the affected area. The gutter in this area is also dipped and holding water, with debris present. There are solar panels installed on the roof, which prevented the assessor from fully viewing the affected tiled roof area and made it unsafe for them to remove the gutter debris during their inspection. Required works Remove and replace up to 10 damaged roof tiles with new tiles. Realign the dipped gutter so it drains correctly. Remove debris from the gutter as required. Inspect the roof area above the affected bedroom/window. Solar panels may need to be temporarily removed to allow the affected tiled roof area to be fully inspected. A carpenter is also required to inspect and assess the bedroom window framing for any damage or required repairs. Area / quantities provided by GIO Up to 10 roof tiles – remove and replace damaged tiles. Gutter – realignment required; GIO has not provided a specific length/area. Bedroom window framing – inspection and assessment required. Affected roof area above bedroom window – exact area cannot currently be confirmed because the solar panels obstruct the view. These works have been identified by GIO as maintenance-related works that need to be completed before GIO can proceed with the insurance repairs. There are two adjoining units requiring roof maintenance. Unit 3 is directly next door and has separate roof repairs required. If you are interested in completing both units, please let me know as we may be able to arrange a combined job. Please provide a detailed quote for the above works, including labour and materials.

Diagnose & Repair Roof Leak / Water Ingress

Bentleigh East VIC 3165, Australia

22nd Sep 2026

We’ve recently noticed some water staining/discolouration on the ceiling in our front living area near an external wall/window. Looking for an experienced roofer/roof plumber who may be available today to inspect and identify the source of the water ingress. Ideally looking for someone who can: * Inspect the roof, tiles, flashing and guttering above the affected area * Identify the likely cause/source of the water ingress * Take a few photos of what is found before carrying out any work * Repair the source on the spot if it’s reasonably straightforward * Provide a brief description of what was found/repaired and an invoice The gutters and some of the roof area were pressure washed approximately two weeks ago. I’m not sure whether this is related, but mentioning it as part of the history. Photos of the ceiling staining attached. Bentleigh East. Ideally today if availability permits. Please let me know your availability and relevant roofing/roof plumbing experience.

Expert job! Highly recommend.

Re-render section of upstairs balcony wall after roof repairs

$1,000

Carrum VIC 3197, Australia

19th Sep 2026

I’m looking for an experienced renderer to repair and re-render part of an exterior wall on an upstairs balcony in Carrum. Recent roof and gutter repairs around this wall have left some of the foam backing exposed near the top. The wall is approximately 3.2m high. The left section is about 97cm wide and has foam backing behind the render, while the adjoining section to the right has brick backing. There was previously a crack in the foam-backed section as the house settled, around the point where the different substrates meet. This was temporarily patched and painted, but I would now like the area properly repaired and re-rendered. My preference is to: 1) Re-render just the foam-backed section on the left, from top to bottom, rather than the entire wall if practical 2) Properly repair the exposed foam and previous cracked area 3) Include an expansion/control joint where the foam-backed and brick-backed sections meet if this is the appropriate way to prevent future cracking 4) Match the existing rendered texture and Colorbond Monument colour as closely as possible The entire two-storey wall is likely to be repainted shortly afterwards, so an absolutely perfect colour match isn’t essential. Access is from the upstairs balcony. Photos show the wall, exposed foam, previous repair and approximate dimensions. Please include all materials and let me know your proposed repair/rendering method when quoting. I can provide more photos if needed.

Cetin did an amazing job of re-rendering our wall, very professional. Highly recommended.

Armadale VIC 3143, Australia

Description: Water is leaking heavily through our low-pitch terracotta tile verandah/pergola roof. The overall roof area is compact, roughly 5m wide by 1.8m deep.

Scope of work: - Inspect the leak area and the rest of the 5m x 1.8m roof section. - Supply and install appropriate flashing (lead/apron/soaker) properly integrated with the brickwork and downpipe exit. - Re-seat and replace any missing, cracked, or displaced terracotta tiles (i have 4-5 spares) - Check surrounding joins and ensure the penetration is completely watertight. - Tidy up and remove any job debris. Requirements: -Experienced roof plumber or licensed roofer - Must bring own ladder, tools, and required materials (flashing, sealants, replacement terracotta tiles if needed).

Experienced Roofer Needed – Repair Roof Flashing Leak

$600

Biggera Waters QLD 4216, Australia

8th Sep 2026

Australian Leak Detection has already carried out a professional water-ingress investigation and identified the source of the leak. Their report found a significant number of damaged and/or unsealed sections of roof flashing around the garage roof/upper-level roof area. A controlled spray test failed and confirmed that water is entering through defective flashing areas via capillary action and causing water ingress to the garage ceiling below. The external garage wall was separately spray-tested and passed, so the identified problem is the roof/flashing area. Required works: - Review the supplied Australian Leak Detection report and photographs. - Inspect the identified roof flashing areas. - Identify all damaged, separated or inadequately sealed flashing/joints. - Remove deteriorated or failed existing sealant where required. - Properly prepare the affected surfaces. - Repair and professionally reseal the flashing/junctions using appropriate roofing-grade materials. - If sections of flashing are damaged beyond resealing, advise and repair/replace/fabricate the required flashing. - Check relevant flashing laps, fixings and junctions while carrying out the repair. - Conduct a controlled hose/water test after completion to confirm the repaired area is watertight. - Clean up and remove all waste. This is not a request simply to apply silicone over the existing problem. I am looking for someone experienced in roof flashing and water-ingress repairs who can rectify the underlying defect properly. The leak investigation has already been completed, and a detailed 13-page report with photographs showing the affected areas is available and will be supplied. Please include in your offer: - Your roofing experience - Relevant QBCC licence details if applicable - Confirmation that you are insured - Whether materials are included - Whether you are experienced with metal roof flashing repairs/replacement - Your workmanship warranty
