Roof restoration and repairs in Riverview
Riverview takes its name from its railway station, which was named for its views of the Brisbane River. The suburb lies about 9 km east of the Ipswich CBD and 31 km from the Brisbane CBD, with the river on its north eastern side and the on demand Moggill Ferry crossing to Moggill in about three minutes.
The Ipswich Motorway and the Main Line railway both run through Riverview, and local schools such as St Peter Claver College and Riverview State School date from the 1970s. Homes here have a mix of tile and metal roofs, and many are well established.

Common roof problems in Riverview
These are the issues we check first on Riverview homes.
Faded tiles and coatings
Decades of sun break down roof coatings. Once they are gone, tiles absorb more water and metal is less protected.
Cracked ridge pointing
Pointing along the ridges cracks with age, leaving ridge caps loose and the top of the roof open to rain.
Worn screws on metal roofs
Screws lose their seal over time and let water in around each fixing, especially on lower pitch roofs.
Leaks around penetrations
Vents, skylights, whirlybirds and old aerial fixings are common leak points on established homes.
What we recommend
If the problem is in one place, we repair it and leave sound material alone. If wear has spread across the whole roof, a restoration renews it in one job, and major works carry our 10-year warranty on workmanship and materials. If you are unsure what the roof needs, an inspection is a good place to start.
