ROOFTOP’s TOP TIPS
- 1PAINT MISSING ON YOUR FASCIA?
This could be a sign that either your gutter is leaking or overflowing at the corner or you have a loose starter tile. - 2THINKING OF SOLAR?
No one wants the headache of having to dismantle their solar panels to fix a tiny little roofing issue. Get your roof in tip top condition before the big install! - 3CHECK YOUR PIPES!
Bends in metal downpipes can restrict water flow, making your downpipes less effective at moving water away from your house. - 4NOT ALL COLORBOND® PROFILES WILL SUIT ALL ROOF PITCHES.
As with all things in life, Colorbond® roofs are rarely a one-size-fits-all solution. Get the right roof for your application by talking to the pros! - 5LOOKS MATTER.
Visually, a roof accounts for approximately 30% of a home’s exterior. But it covers 100% of what’s inside! Make sure your roof functions well AND looks great. - 6PAINTING YOUR ROOF IS A REALLY COST-EFFECTIVE WAY TO IMPROVE THE VALUE OF YOUR HOME AND INCREASE CURB APPEAL.
Roofs are one of those things that you sort of stop noticing after a while until there’s a big change. You’ll be surprised at what a difference a fresh coat of quality paint can make to the overall look of your home. - 7ALWAYS USE QUALIFIED AND EXPERIENCED ROOFERS.
A little extra goes a long way. For something as important as your roof, cheaper is probably not necessarily better. No matter who you choose for your next roofing job, it’s always a good idea to make sure that they have all the right qualifications to make your project the success it should be. - 8GRASS IN YOUR GUTTER? IT'S TIME TO CLEAN!
Dirt, debris and leaf matter can actually decrease the life of your rainwater system by encouraging corrosion. - 9BROKEN OR CRACKED TILES CAN ACT AS A GATEWAY FOR WATER INTRUSION OVER TIME.
A tile at the bottom of a roof is likely to allow more water into a home than a tile at the top, but none are desirable and should be fixed as soon as you can. - 10LOOKS CAN BE DECEIVING.
Incorrectly installed gutters might still look great but could be having disastrous consequences for you home behind the scenes! When it comes to gutter upgrades, expert installation should be your number one priority. Rainwrap systems are custom made and fitted on location to ensure perfect leak-free installation every time.
