Like with all things in life they start to eventually wear out and roofing is not exception to this.
When leaking or if downpipes are damaged, there is a risk of damage to other areas. It is then the experience of our team that comes into play and is to your benefit that’s why we are used time and time again by our clients. We quite often find water will run across rafters or cables and show up far away from the occurring problems. Identifying a roof leak is sometimes extremely tricky, just because the leak is presenting in one location does not mean that this is the exact spot where it is entering the roof. Usually after a storm the phone will ring many times the next day or even at times an emergency roof plumber call will come in due to an emergency such as roof sheet or tile being lifted off. What can go wrong with roofs? Well the most common fault we get called to attend across the city as a preferred roofing contractors is a roof lea, or it’s currently leaking. The size of a commercial roofs gutters and down pipes will be significantly larger as the volume these take on during a storm is extremely large. You can imagine having a commercial building with a pitch of 35 degrees the top of the pitch would be near on impossible to get to, so it is for this reason the slope is kept far less than that of domestic installations. The other reason is due to the vast span which these roofs travel over. Along with these walkways there will ladders permanently attached to the roofs ensuring all access can be as safe as possible. Majority of commercial and industrial roofing structures will have specifically designed and installed walkways allowing safe access. The reasons for these two points are that many commercial roof structures are deigned to be frequently trafficked due to the large amount of plant stored on top such as hot water services, air conditioning systems and solar panels both electric and hot water service types The growing trend towards solar for electrical and hot water is also on the rise therefore many of the roofs we work on are partially consumed by infrastructure for the home making it a little more challenging at times to get to the source of the problem.Ĭommercial and Industrial roofing will typically have a much more gradual slope and stretch over a far greater span. Residential homes will typically have a gutter which travels around the perimeter of the home to capture any precipitation during the event of rain falling onto it. A residential home will have a pitch or slope of between 18 to 35 degrees. Today with new construction it is an even split between tiled and sheeted roofing. Across the older parts of the state such as Unley, Balhannah, Norwood, Myrtle Bank, Colonel Light Gardens and Medindie you will see more of a trend towards terracotta clay tiles on properties 50 years and older. Domestic residential roofing repairs Adelaide across Adelaide and the Adelaide Hills is generally a mix of either metal or tiled constructions.
