About Roofer

Spotting hidden damage early

Ask the roofer to photograph any rotten battens or felt discovered after stripping. Soft spots in sarking board often appear only once tiles come off. Replace damaged felt sections at the same time, since leaving old felt guarantees future condensation issues under the new covering.

Ice, water, and weather barriers worth paying for

In cold climates a self-adhesive membrane along eaves and in valleys prevents leaks from ice dams and wind-driven rain. Synthetic underlayment over the rest of the deck resists tearing during installation. These are cheap upgrades that stop the most common leak paths, so ask which layers the roofer plans to install.

What a roofer actually does

A roofer installs, repairs and replaces roofing on houses. Work covers the underlay, battens, tiles or metal sheets, flashing, ridge pieces and gutter edges. They also check timber structure, ventilation openings and insulation below the surface. Most roofers handle pitched roofs, flat roofs and roof windows.

The importance of flashing and valleys

Flashing seals joints where the roof meets walls, chimneys and dormers. Lead flashing lasts over 50 years if fitted correctly. Valleys channel high water volumes and wear out first, so check them yearly. Poorly soldered valley seams cause most leaks reported within 2 years of a new roof.

Skylights, chimneys, and other roof penetrations

Every pipe, vent, or chimney that breaks through the roof is a potential leak point. Ask how the roofer will flash each one: step flashing for chimneys, lead boots for plumbing vents, and purpose-made kits for skylights. Old sealant is not flashing, and reusing corroded metal invites water inside within 2 seasons.

When to call a roofer

Call a roofer when you see water stains on ceilings, loose tiles after wind, granules in gutters, rusted flashing or daylight through the loft. Sagging rooflines or moss thick enough to lift tiles also need attention. Small leaks grow into timber rot within weeks, so quick action matters.

Ventilation and insulation checks

A healthy roof needs airflow at the eaves and ridge to prevent condensation. Ask about adding eaves vents or a dry ridge system. Check that insulation sits at the recommended 270 mm depth. Good ventilation keeps timber dry and prevents the mould growth that often follows winter heating.

Site protection and clean-up standards

Roofing is messy and dangerous. Confirm the crew will protect driveways, gardens, and walls with tarps and plywood. A magnetic sweep for nails should happen every working day, not only at the end. Ask where the dumpster will sit, who pulls the permit, and how the property is left at close of each day.

Asking about licences and insurance

Ask for public liability insurance with a minimum cover of 1 million currency units. Request proof of training or trade certification in roofing. Confirm workers are covered for working at height. A written quotation showing registration details protects you if damage or injury occurs during the job.

Warranty and after-service expectations

Reputable roofers offer a workmanship warranty of 5 to 10 years. Manufacturer warranties on tiles or membranes run 20 to 30 years. Keep the job photos and material data sheets. Schedule a roof check every 2 years and after storms above 50 km/h wind speed to catch loose ridge tiles.
