FAQs

What are the most common signs that my Cowan roof is leaking?

Typical indicators include water stains on ceilings or walls, damp insulation in the attic, mould or mildew growth, peeling interior paint, and visible water dripping after rain. Outside, you might notice missing or cracked shingles, lifted flashing around chimneys or skylights, and blocked gutters that cause water to back-up under the roof covering.

How quickly can you respond to an emergency roof leak in Cowan?

We offer 24/7 emergency call-outs across the Cowan area. In most cases, one of our licensed roofers can be on-site within two hours. We begin with a temporary ‘make safe’—such as installing tarpaulins or sealing compounds—to stop further water intrusion, then schedule a full repair as soon as weather and materials allow.

What are the main causes of roof leaks in Cowan and how do you fix them?

In Cowan, leaks are most often caused by storm damage, aging or poorly installed flashing, cracked ridge capping, blocked or rusted gutters, and broken tiles or shingles. After a thorough inspection we: 1. Pinpoint each entry point of water. 2. Replace cracked tiles or damaged metal sheets. 3. Reseal or install new flashing around penetrations. 4. Re-bed and re-point ridge capping. 5. Clear and, if necessary, re-align gutters and downpipes. All repairs are carried out to meet current Australian Standards (or relevant local building codes) and manufacturer specifications.

Will my roof leak repair be covered by insurance?

Many Cowan homeowners are covered when the leak results from sudden, unavoidable events such as hail, high winds, or fallen branches. Insurers generally will not pay for damage caused by lack of maintenance or normal wear and tear. We can supply a detailed roof report with photos to support your claim and can liaise directly with your insurer or loss adjuster if required.

Do you provide a warranty on leak repair work?

Yes. All workmanship is backed by a written labour warranty ranging from 5 to 10 years, depending on the repair type. Any new materials—tiles, metal sheets, sealants, or flashing—are also covered by the manufacturer’s product warranty. If an issue related to our repair re-occurs within the warranty period, we will return promptly and fix it at no extra cost.

How much does roof leak repair cost in Cowan?

Minor repairs such as replacing a few broken tiles and resealing flashing typically start from $250–$400. Medium repairs that involve multiple leaks, partial re-bedding, and gutter cleaning range between $600–$1,200. Major storm damage repairs or sections requiring re-sheeting can be $1,500–$4,000+, especially if structural timber needs replacement. Every roof is different, so we always provide a free on-site inspection and detailed quote before work begins.
