Sounds familiar?
Most people call us about one of six things.
-
A brown stain spreading across a ceiling
Water is getting in somewhere above — and plaster is quietly paying for it.
Repairs -
Cracked or slipped tiles after a storm
One broken tile can track water under the sarking on the very next rain.
Repairs -
Rust streaks below valleys or gutters
Corrosion starts on the side you can't see, then catches up quickly.
Guttering & drainage -
Coating gone chalky or patchy
The UV has eaten the membrane. The roof is ageing, not failing — restoration territory.
Restoration -
Cracks along the ridge capping
The original mortar bedding breaks down over decades; flexible re-pointing reseals it.
Restoration -
Gutters overflowing in ordinary rain
Wrong fall, undersized spans or a blocked valley — the water goes where you don't want it.

Book a free inspectionWhat we do
Four jobs. Done properly.
- Repairs Fix the failure. Leave the rest alone.
-
Broken tiles, failed valley irons, localised leaks, storm damage. We repair the section that has actually failed — and tell you honestly if the rest of the roof doesn't need touching.
Right when the roof is structurally sound and the damage is in one or two places.
- Restoration A tired roof, made sound and sealed again.
-
Pressure-clean, replace broken tiles, re-bed and re-point the ridge capping, then recoat with membrane in the colour you choose. Years more life at a fraction of replacement cost.
Right when the coating has faded but the structure underneath is still sound.
If a roof is past restoration, we say so — a recoat over a wet deck is money buried.
- Replacement A new roof, specified properly.
-
Full strip-out, new battens and sarking where they're needed, then new Colorbond or tile to suit the house. Sorted once, correctly, for decades.
Right when failures are multiplying, the substrate is rusting or rotting, or a renovation is happening anyway.
- Guttering & drainage Move water off the roof, and away from the house.
-
Gutters, downpipes, valleys and flashings set to a correct fall, sized for Melbourne downpours, with overflow points where they belong.
Right when gutters overflow, stain the fascia, or pool at foundations.
Not sure which one you need? That’s the inspection’s job, not yours. Tell us what you’re seeing and we’ll work it out together.
What happens next
From “something’s wrong” to a plan you can trust.
-
Tell us what you're seeing
Two minutes in the form, or a short call. Photos help but aren't required.
-
We inspect — free
On the roof, not just from the driveway. Every fault we find gets photographed.
-
You get it in writing
Findings, options and a fixed, itemised scope. The price doesn't move after we start.
-
Decide without pressure
Quotes stay valid for 30 days. No follow-up pestering — the report is yours either way.
Our approach
What a clear assessment includes.
A roofing inspection should read like a report, not a sales pitch. This is what ours contains — and what any assessment you compare it against should contain too.
If you get another quote, use our report for it. You keep the findings either way — they’re more useful to you than to us.
-
Every fault photographed
Not just the ones that make the quote bigger. You see exactly what we saw.
-
The entry point, not just the stain
Water travels. We trace stains back to where the roof actually lets in.
-
Drainage checked end to end
Valleys, gutters, downpipes and falls — most 'roof leaks' are drainage problems.
-
Ridge and bedding condition
Cracked bedding fails slowly, then suddenly. It gets graded, not guessed.
-
An honest life expectancy
How many years the roof has left if you do nothing — so repair versus replace is your call, with facts.
