The roofs in Seahampton
A bushland property collecting tank water needs both the catchment and access details included in the enquiry.
To discuss roof repairs in Seahampton, describe the symptoms and provide any available information about water collection.
What we look at first in Seahampton
A collection roof needs suitable work methods as well as suitable products.
Roof debris
Leaves may gather at several junctions below surrounding canopy.
Site requirements
Check applicable bushfire provisions before selecting replacement edge details.
Water collection
Identify household tank use before specifying coatings or sealants.
Council and approvals in Seahampton
If the work goes beyond a repair involving site requirements and water collection, check any applicable bushfire construction requirements for the actual address with Lake Macquarie City Council or a certifier.
Large parts of Lake Macquarie sit in declared mine subsidence districts, where building work needs the approval of Subsidence Advisory NSW as well as council. Whether a re-roof triggers it depends on the work and the district.
General information about how the process works, not planning advice. Your council is the authority on your property.
What we do in Seahampton
Pressure clean, re-bed and re-point the ridge capping, replace broken tiles, then a coating system. Typically buys another 10 to 15 years out of a sound tile roof.
Learn moreSlipped and cracked tiles, failed pointing, rusted valley irons and flashing. We find what is actually causing the problem rather than patching the wet patch.
Learn moreWhen the battens or sarking have gone, a coating will not save it. We strip the old roof and re-sheet, usually to Colorbond steel.
Learn moreColorbond steel roofing, supplied and installed. Lighter than tile, quick to install, and it holds up well to the salt air along the coast.
Learn moreRoof plumbing is its own licensed trade: metal roofing, guttering, downpipes, flashing and box gutters. If water is meant to move, this is the work that moves it.
Learn moreA stain on the ceiling or a drip during last night's rain. Call us and we will come and look at it, find where the water is actually getting in, and make it safe.
