Metal roofing, or tin roofs, come in two major steel materials - Zincalume and Colorbond. It’s quite simple, but the main difference is more or less the colour. Zincalume roofs give you that typical aluminium ‘tin’ look, whereas Colorbond gives you more variety when it comes to colour. Although our team at Roof Repairs Perth WA consists of highly specialised tile roofing experts, we are still consistently producing just as good quality work when it comes to metal roofing. So don’t be scared to contact us for your metal roofing enquiries.
 
 
Being metal roofs, both share the many advantages over its tile roof counterparts. The main advantages being energy efficiency, withstanding extreme weather conditions, termite-resistant, being lower maintenance and finally having a longer lifespan than other roofing materials. Having said that, metal roofing has its own handful of disadvantages over tile roofs. A big one being that it is more pricey to install.

This is a big fat myth! Sure you can argue metal roofs do a better job overall, but they still leak too. For more information on metal roofing please click here.
 

Faulty Fixings

I received a call from a customer who was experiencing water stains on the ceilings inside her property. Upon investigating I found roofing screws had been installed incorrectly. Some fixings had been screwed down far too tightly causing the metal sheet to become damaged. Some had been installed at the wrong angle which pushes the rubber seal out of position.

You may think an incorrect angle of a screw is not a problem, but the correct position, fixing pressure and angle make the difference between a water tight roof or a water damaged ceiling.
