Roofing in Illawong

Illawong runs down to the Georges River, and many homes sit on sloping blocks looking over the water.

What Illawong roofs deal with

Every suburb is a bit different. Here is what we look out for on Illawong roofs.

Close to the water

Homes in Illawong sit close to the water, and the moisture and salt that come off it still find their way onto the roof. Flashings, valleys and gutters are worth checking more often here, especially after a run of storms.

Sloping blocks

Plenty of blocks in Illawong slope away from the street or down to the water. That changes how sheets and materials get onto the roof and where the edge protection goes, which we work out when we come out to quote.

Original tile roofs

Many homes in Illawong still have their original concrete or terracotta tiles. After decades in the weather, tiles turn porous, the pointing cracks and broken tiles let water in. When a tiled roof is leaking in several places, a tile to metal conversion often makes more sense than another round of patching.

David is a professional tradesman and a true gentleman. He knows his job. He is prompt, on time, highly capable and knowledgeable. He made certain that our roof leak was correctly detected before proceeding with the job. He is honest and thorough... and the cost for the work was very reasonable. I would highly recommend David. You won't find a better man for the job.
