What are the most common roof issues in Perth?
Cement roof tiles may show signs of age-related wear and tear such as cracked tiles, chipped tiles, worn glaze, and paint cover.
Clay roof tiles may also show signs of wear and tear over time, including cracked tiles, chipped tiles, and fretting.
Ridge and hip caps may crack and debond over time.
Roof sheets, flashings, roof fixings, and rubber seals may rust or wear out, leading to water leaks.
Roof tiles may crack, break, or leak, resulting in general damage.
Overflow in flashing and valley trays may occur due to a flat lip at the edge of valley trays.
Tile paint may break down, leaving the roof tile exposed to the elements, which can make the tile up to 20% heavier in the winter due to rain. This added weight can put a strain on the roof frame.
Lack of a proper water seal can lead to water entry from the tiles, flashings, and/or ridge capping.
Undulation in the roof pitch can cause waviness in the roof, which may cause tiles to stretch and gape.
Over time, the weight of the tiles can cause rafters to bend, resulting in gaps that allow water entry.
Bending of rafter ends may cause tiles and hip cap mortar to crack and break down, allowing water to enter into the roof cavity.
Ceilings, cornices, and walls may experience water staining and mold as a result of water entering through the roof. Additionally, lack of or poor ventilation may cause mold to form.
Building insurance typically does not cover water damage caused by age wear and tear, as this is considered to be a maintenance issue.
