Do You Need Roof Repairs Right Now?
Roofing problems don’t go away on their own. Even a small issue can turn into water damage, mould growth or costly structural problems if you delay the repair.
Below are the most common warning signs we see across Melbourne Homes:
- A leaking roof during or after heavy rain
- Broken tiles, loose ridge caps or shifting terracotta tiles
- Water stains, damp patches or bubbling paint on ceilings or walls
- Cracked, slipped, or displaced concrete or terracotta roof tiles
- Gutters, valleys or roof plumbing overflowing into the roof cavity
- An old roof showing clear wear and tear or declining performance
These signs show your roofing needs attention, and acting quickly is the simplest way to prevent further damage.
What Happens If You Don’t Act Fast?
Small roof problems don’t fix themselves. Every month of delay multiplies the damage and cost. Here’s the timeline of escalating damage:
Week 1-4
Initial Leak Damage
Water reaches ceilings and walls. Drywall absorbs moisture, paint bubbles and peels.
Can be from $1000 to fix
Month 2-3
Mold & Health Risk
Mold begins growing in damp cavities. Airborne spores cause respiratory issues for children and elderly.
Can be from $2000 to fix
Week 4-6
Structural Decay
Roof framing timber softens and weakens. Structural integrity compromised. Much more expensive repairs needed.
Could be excess of $8,000 to fix
Month 6+
Insurance Problems
Insurers may deny claims for damage from “lack of maintenance.” Policy may be cancelled or non-renewed.
Could be excess of $15,000+ to fix or rebuild
A $1,000 roof repair today prevents a $15,000+ structural rebuild tomorrow.

Roof Repairs FAQ
Yes. Some repairs can be prioritised so you fix urgent issues first and schedule lower-risk maintenance later.
We’ll explain what requires immediate attention and what can safely be staged.
No. Quality repairs support future restoration and replacement work. We use compatible materials and correct detailing so nothing needs to be redone later.
In most cases, yes. Common terracotta, concrete and Slate profiles can usually be closely matched.
If a profile is discontinued, we’ll let you know the closest available option before starting work.
Small repairs usually blend in once weathered.
Larger repairs may look slightly different depending on age and colour fade of the existing roofing materials. We’ll explain what to expect so there are no surprises.
Most repairs take a few hours to half a day. Larger repairs, complex access or multiple damaged areas may take longer.
We’ll confirm the expected timeframe before work begins.
If the damage is widespread, affecting multiple areas or caused by ageing materials, repairing the entire roof or recommending restoration/replacement may be more cost-effective.
We’ll assess the extent and give honest guidance.
