Do you also want your house to last a long time? Then be sure to give it the TLC it needs. If you need help fixing or replacing your roof, Melbourne Roof Specialist offers excellent roofing services in Hawthorn. The scope of the job differs depending on the type of roof of your house.

Tile Roof Replacement

Although clay tile roofing is very durable and can be expected to last 15 to 30 years, after some time, everyday wear and tear may result in broken tiles and ridge caps. The underlayment may dry out, shrink and curl. In such cases, it is necessary to address the problem to avoid leaks and other undesirable damages. Whether broken tiles need replacement or mortar joints need repointing, our expert roofer will be able to help.

Asbestos Roofing Replacement

If your house was built with an asbestos roof, you need to pay attention if you suspect signs of deterioration. When asbestos fibers loosen and are released into the air, it may put your family’s health and safety at risk. Inhaling asbestos is known to cause respiratory disease and cancer.

There’s no need to worry if your asbestos roof is in good condition. But you may want to think long-term if you’re thinking of replacing your asbestos roof. If you want to sell your house, people may not be as interested when they know it has an asbestos roof.

Because of the risk on safety, a professional must take on an asbestos roof removal project. Special steps like sealing and covering are necessary to ensure it is safe to remove and replace the roof.

Metal Roof Replacement

Metal roofs are popular because of their durability, lasting up to 35 years, and ability to reflect the sun’s heat, which is good for saving on energy costs. Regular maintenance is necessary to keep the metal sheets in good condition for a long time. Because when corrosion occurs, complete removal and replacement may become necessary.
