FAQ
How do I know if my bitumen tile roof leak is coming from the tiles or the flashing?
Leaks often show up far from the actual entry point, so a surface stain alone is not enough to diagnose. We inspect valleys, penetrations, and flashing lines first, then check for lifted or cracked tiles nearby. A proper trace prevents repeat leaks and unnecessary tile replacement.
Can you replace only a few damaged bitumen tiles, or do I need a full roof replacement?
In many cases, isolated wind damage, punctures, or cracked shingles can be repaired by replacing the affected tiles and sealing the surrounding area. A full replacement is usually considered only when widespread granule loss, repeated leaks, or underlayment failure is found. We will explain the condition and options after inspection.
Is it safe to wait until the weather improves before fixing a small roof leak?
Waiting can allow moisture to spread under the tiles and into insulation and timber, increasing repair costs. If active leaking is present, a quick temporary protection and prompt repair is recommended. We can prioritise urgent jobs to reduce interior damage.
