Roof replacements, or re-roofing, is a scary term for homeowners but also for my team too! It is a costly costly process that takes a whole lot of manpower to pull off, especially if you want it done right. At Roof Repairs Perth WA, we do whatever it takes to avoid an entire replacement of a homeowners roof because honestly, majority of the time - it’s not necessary.

While a building inspector may initially tell you that your home needs a roof replacement, after our closer inspection, it usually is not necessary. There are many other ways to restore life and value to your roof which are less costly and also require less time.

What is roof replacement?

 
It’s exactly what it sounds like. Roof replacement or re-roofing is the process of ripping off your current roof (professionally of course) and slapping on a brand new one. Why’s it so scary? Well, it can set you back at least $15,000-$20,000 depending on the job, and requires a lot of time & labour from our end. As we’re already quite booked out as it is, we prefer to avoid roof replacement jobs especially when they are not necessary.

A lot of the time, all the roof really needs is a proper repair & restructuring to not only resolve the roof’s issues but to also give it a whole lot more life. For more information on roof repairs please click here.
 
Now having said all that - when is a roof replacement necessary? In my eyes, a roof replacement is only necessary when it makes the most sense for the homeowner given their different options.

For example, a client I had the other month had an old beaten down tile roof that was filled with a cesspool of issues. During our inspection, among other issues, we saw 100s of tiles that needed replacement from corrosion and even the tile batons needed to be replaced.

At this point, we gave the homeowner two options. Sure, we could resolve all these issues but it would already cost them close to the same amount for an entire roof replacement. As such, our second and recommended option was to just start from scratch and replace the roof entirely. They ended up taking our recommendation on board, and have not looked back since.

As you can see, we only recommend roof replacements as a very last resort as it costs the homeowner more money, and it costs my team a lot of manpower and time that could be used for other jobs. Only when it makes the most sense cost-benefit wise for the client, do we recommend this option.

So, do you really need a roof replacement? My team and I will be at the ready to hear your roofing issues, come down and give it a proper inspection, and finally give you our two cents on the issue (coming from our 20+ years of experience). We’ll make sure you get the best bang for your buck but also more importantly - the job gets done right, the first time.
