Local knowledge · South-East Melbourne

Roofs worth keeping right.

Oakleigh has a lot of well-kept post-war homes whose roofs are simply old: concrete and terracotta tile with cracked pointing, porous surfaces and ageing valleys. Owners here tend to want the roof maintained properly rather than replaced, which is exactly the work we do best.

Oakleigh in detail

Perished pointing across the older housing.

Oakleigh is a settled, established suburb of interwar and post-war homes with a busy centre and newer units around it. Rigid ridge mortar perished with age is the standout issue on the older roofs here, with rusting valleys and tired guttering close behind.

We re-bed and re-point ridge and hip capping, renew valleys and flashing, re-coat tile that is still sound and refit failing guttering. On the newer builds we correct flashing and gutter-fall faults from construction. Every job is inspected properly and quoted in writing first.

Roofing in Oakleigh

Roof repairs in Oakleigh, your questions.

Absolutely, and that is usually the right call on a sound roof. Repointing, replacing broken tiles, renewing valleys and a restoration coat will add many years. We only recommend replacement when a roof is genuinely past repair.
Look for cracked mortar along the ridge, grit washing into the gutters and caps that sit out of line. If you see those, the pointing has gone and the ridge should be re-pointed before it lets water in.
