FAQs
How can I tell if my metal roof has been damaged after a storm?
Look for obvious signs such as dented or displaced panels, lifted fasteners, bent flashings, or water stains inside the ceiling. Because metal roofing can conceal subtle punctures or seam separations, it’s wise to arrange a professional roof inspection in Mascot within 24–48 hours after severe wind or hail. Our technicians use moisture meters and drone imagery to detect hidden issues that could lead to leaks later.
What should I do immediately when I discover storm damage to my roof?
Prioritise safety—stay on the ground and avoid climbing onto a wet or unstable roof. Photograph the visible damage for your insurance claim, cover any interior belongings that may be exposed, and contact us for an emergency make-safe service. We can install temporary tarps or metal patches the same day in Mascot to stop water ingress until full repairs are completed.
Do you help with insurance claims for storm-damaged metal roofs?
Yes. We supply detailed inspection reports, itemised repair estimates, and high-resolution photos that meet most insurers’ requirements. Our team can liaise directly with your assessor, answer technical questions, and provide supplementary documentation, reducing the administrative burden and helping you obtain a fair settlement faster.
Can my damaged metal roof be repaired, or will I need a full replacement?
Most storm-related issues—such as dented sheets, loose fixings, minor punctures, or damaged flashings—can be repaired without replacing the entire roof. We match the original profile and colour (Colorbond, Zincalume, galvanised, etc.) and re-seal seams to restore full watertight integrity. A complete replacement is recommended only when damage exceeds 30 % of the surface area or the roof is nearing the end of its service life.
How long do metal roof storm repairs usually take in Mascot?
Emergency make-safe work is completed on the day you call. Standard repairs—replacing panels, resealing screws, or installing new flashings—typically take 1–2 days, depending on access and weather. If a partial roof replacement is required, allow 3–5 working days. We schedule work promptly to minimise disruption and coordinate with other trades if ceiling or gutter repairs are also needed.
Will the repaired sections match my existing Colorbond roof in appearance and performance?
Absolutely. We source Colorbond and other metal profiles from the same Australian manufacturers used on your original installation. By matching colour code, rib profile, and gauge, we ensure a seamless appearance. All replacement sheets and flashings carry the same corrosion-resistant coatings and come with manufacturer warranties, so the repaired areas will perform identically to the rest of your roof.
