As we push through yet another dramatic Australian summer, Sydney has already seen its fair share of scorching heat, heavy downpour, blustering winds and destructive showers of two-centimetre hailstones. We may feel somewhat accustomed to dealing with the impact of extreme weather, but even the most hardened locals can take for granted how much damage the climate can cause to homes.
If your roof is to have any hope of withstanding Sydney’s severe weather conditions for years to come, it needs to be built to last. A badly built and poorly maintained roof will attract a range of issues from water leaks and cosmetic flaws to major structural damage, and the cost of repairs rises the longer you put off an upgrade.
While even the best meteorologists can’t predict the future, preparing your roof for the worst of the weather is a shrewd way to ensure your home stays protected and you lower the mounting costs of ongoing maintenance.
What is reroofing and how does it benefit me?
Reroofing is, as the name suggests, the process of replacing or significantly repairing an existing roof. It’s a critical part of long-term maintenance: given roofs don’t often last as long as the structure underneath, most homes should be reroofed at least once in their lifetime.
Reroofing offers lasting benefits that ultimately help the upgrade pay for itself in the long run. A retiled roof extends the structural lifetime of your home, cuts the cost of ongoing maintenance and, for Sydneysiders, ensures you have better protection from thunderstorms, hail, heat and other extreme weather.
How do I know if I need reroofing?
There are several signs of a deteriorating roof to look out for:
- Cracked, rotting, loose or otherwise damaged tiles
- Excess algae, mould or moss which may lead to rot
- Pieces of roof tile collecting in the gutter
- Poor drainage
- Sagging parts of the roof
Aside from the visible signs of deterioration, consider the age of your roof. Most last roughly 20 years before needing to be replaced, depending on several factors including the material used.
