Roof Care Near Bushland
Homes near bushland collect leaves, bark and gum nuts in valleys and gutters, and shaded roofs grow lichen faster. Blocked valleys are one of the most common causes of leaks we see in leafy areas.
Broken tiles and gaps under ridge caps also let embers into the roof space in bushfire season. Replacing broken tiles, repointing ridges and keeping valleys clear all help.
High Pressure Roof Cleaning and Lichen Removal
Lichen, moss and grime hold moisture against tiles, block water flow and wear down the tile surface. Shaded roofs and roofs under trees are hit hardest.
Our high pressure roof cleaning removes this growth and dirt without damaging sound tiles. It's the first step of every restoration, and it can also be done on its own when the rest of the roof is in good shape.
Signs Your Ridge Capping Needs Attention
Look for gaps or cracks along the ridge lines, crumbling mortar, ridge caps that look uneven, and leaks that appear along the line of a ridge or hip.
Catching failed pointing early means a simple repoint rather than a full rebed, and it stops loose caps from moving or falling in strong winds.
