I got a cheap quote –what should I worry about?
A good roof installation will cope with any heavy downpour, without any leaks or over-flowing gutters. This can be hard for the untrained eye to spot with a major storm, and by then it is too late. Some basic tell-tale signs include: misaligned screws, cuts between sheets that are not aligned, box gutters that are too small or have pooled water that does not drain.
How long will the work take?
An average size home takes about 1 week to have the roof replaced professionally.
What could happen if my roof is not installed correctly?
A poor installation could allow leaks. These might not be seen immediately, until rising damp is found, or other damage to the structure of your home. Even a poorly installed roof may cope with most average rain, but will fail when there is one of the all too regular Sydney storms.
Can we do any of the work?
Under Work, Health & Safety legislation we advise that the contractor conducts all work relating to working at heights.
What does an average roof replacement cost?
This will always depend on the specific site. Colorbond starts from $88 per square metre while gutters start from $88 per lineal metre. To get an accurate quote, please contact us for a free quote.
