Is Re-Roofing the Right Option?
Your roof ultimately protects your home (and everything in it) from expensive water damage, if it becomes compromised. Therefore it is imperative that you ensure your roof is in top condition and that you are proactive in identifying problems before damage occurs. However if you are unsure and would like a professional to assess your roof for you, Weathermaster Roofing can do so provided advice and guidance that is best suited to your individual situation.
As Christchurch’s preferred residential roofing service provider, we offer free no obligation assessments and quotes to valued customers throughout Canterbury.
Problem areas to keep an eye out for are:
- Rust and damage around flashings & fixings
- Missing or lifted screws/nails and loose sheets
- Ponding/pooling of water on flat roofs
- Cracked or broken tiles
- Missing pointing/mortar on ridgelines
- Paint peeling or non-existent
- Lifted substrate (under membrane)
- Peeling membrane
- Any damage to an asbestos roof
- And of course, any sign of leaking
Metal roofs weigh approx 1/8 of the weight of a concrete tile roof!

If your roof is at the stage of benefiting from a re-roof, an investment now for protecting everything (and everybody) within your most important asset is worth the initial cost. Patch jobs on old roofs are often a false economy, with the patch up and any further repairs down the line being expensive due to the requirement of scaffolding each time. A deteriorating roof can really impact the appearance of your property, not to mention the unseen damage a leaking roof can cause long before you notice the leak.
