Common roof problems in Woodend
Heritage homes in Woodend usually need attention in these areas.
Undersized or rusted gutters
Gutters on older homes were not always sized for the downpours Ipswich gets in summer, and many have rusted at the joins.
Keeping the character
On character homes we aim to repair in a way that suits the original roof, rather than defaulting to a new one.
Verandah roofs
Verandah roofs often sit at a lower pitch than the main roof, so water moves slowly and rust starts sooner.
A note on older homes
Homes built in Queensland before 1990 may contain asbestos in materials such as fibro sheeting. If your home is older, let us know when you book, so the job can be planned safely.
The right fix for your roof
If sheets or tiles are sound, repairs and a fresh coating can add years of life. If they are failing everywhere, we will say so and talk through replacement honestly.
