Brett was fantastic! He responded with an in-deph explanation of what needed to be done, step by step to fix the our roof gutter repair. He advised his qualifications upfront & was available the next day to urgently attend too. Brett is a very good tradesman and can do or fix multiple things around the house from as little as a lawn to replacing a whole kitchen as a qualified builder. He works quick and did a great job. I will definitely use him again should a need arises. S. Houghton

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Small Roof Repair -Capping stone cementing

$150

Cleveland QLD, Australia

10th Mar 2024

We had a roof leak recently, and our insurance company sent someone out to do a “Make Safe”! They put some flashing on the area where there were cracks in the capping stone cement. The roofer that did the make safe told me that due to our insurance excess, it would not be worth making a claim. The contractor told me that the job was only small and required some of the small cracks filling in with roof cement. I am wanting a qualified experienced contractor to fix this issue please. I was told that the job would be approx $150

Trent turned up when he said, explained the work that was required and has been very open about what he and his work partner had done to fix my issue along with some extra bits which they have also repaired. I am a happy customer. 😀
