Age
No roof lasts forever. Most modern installations are designed to last a significant amount of time, but depending on the quality of the tiles or flat roofing and the workmanship, a new roof might be the answer.
Damaged Tiles
If broken pieces of tile are falling into the guttering, the issue must be addressed immediately. This is a sign that the entire roof is beginning to deteriorate. If the guttering becomes blocked, you risk internal water damage as well.
Leakage
Leaks are major indicators that something needs to be addressed. Usually, a single tile replacement, patchwork or flashing repair is required, but letting the leak continue will cause internal damage to your property.
Light
Can you see the light shining through the roof from the attic space in your home? If so, the tiles or flat roof may have cracks, holes or tears. A properly installed roof will not permit any light to penetrate it.
Mould
Look for mould, moss or algae accumulation on the roof. Any signs of rotting may indicate the need for emergency roof replacement. If not addressed, the mould can spread into the interior.
Pooling
Sitting water on flat roofs shows poor drainage, which, if not addressed, will lead to sagging and mould buildup. We ensure our flat roofs are angled at just over 1° to guarantee proper drainage.
Sagging
Check your roof's interior and exterior aspects for signs of sagging. This could indicate structural damage that requires immediate attention. Ignoring it may lead to partial collapse and major, expensive renovation works.
