Your roof is one of the most important parts of your home, protecting you from Melbourne’s unpredictable weather. But over time, even the strongest roofs start to show signs of wear and tear. Knowing when it’s time for a roof restoration can save you from costly repairs down the track.
Here are five common signs to look out for:
1. Cracked or Broken Tiles
Damaged tiles allow water to seep through, leading to leaks and internal damage. Even a few cracked tiles should be addressed quickly.
2. Worn or Crumbling Mortar
If the mortar around your ridge caps is loose or cracked, it means your roof may need rebedding and repointing to stay secure.
3. Rusted Valley Irons
Valleys direct water off your roof, but when they rust or corrode, leaks and water overflow can cause serious issues.
4. Moss, Algae, or Dirt Build-Up
Heavy moss or dirt not only looks bad but also holds moisture, which can weaken tiles and shorten your roof’s lifespan.
5. Fading or Flaking Roof Paint
If your roof looks dull or patchy, it may be time for a professional clean and protective coating to restore its finish.
