⚠️ Roof Leak Repairs Are a Process of Elimination
Solving roof leaks is complex because water behaves unpredictably depending on wind intensity, direction, and rainfall volume. A leak that appears during heavy rain from one direction may not be present during lighter rainfall or when the wind shifts.
✔ Leaks Can Have Multiple Entry Points – While water may enter your home at a single visible location, the actual leak may originate from multiple areas on your roof.
✔ Wind and Rain Variability – Different weather conditions can expose different vulnerabilities in your roofing system.
✔ impossible to Guarantee One-Time Fixes. Due to the nature of leaks, repairing one issue does not mean another will not emerge over time.
✔ Ongoing Inspection is Key – A roof that appears sealed in one weather condition may still leak under different circumstances. Regular inspections are crucial to prevent future leaks.
🚨 If you have a recurring leak, further assessment may be required to pinpoint all possible entry points. Call (07) 5580 4311 for expert evaluation.
🚫 Metal Roof Leaks Are Never A DIY Repair
If you notice water coming through your Zincalum or Colorbond roof, you potentially have a significant problem. Unfortunately, metal roof leaks are not a DIY repair.
✔ DIY Fixes Fail: Silicon and temporary patches don’t solve the problem.
✔ Storms Make Leaks Worse: Heavy rain and wind can expand leaks rapidly.
✔ Insurance May Not Cover Neglect: Lack of maintenance can void your claim.

✅ Simple Checks to Help Protect Your Building
After heavy rain and storms, checking how your building manages water can prevent long-term damage. Even minor entry points can allow moisture to seep in, leading to more significant problems over time. Here are a few areas worth reviewing:
🔹 Inspect walls and floors – Noticed any new cracks? Sealing them early can help reduce the risk of water intrusion and further deterioration.
🔹 Check your drainage – Are gutters and downspouts directing water away from the foundation? Ensuring proper water flow prevents pooling near your building’s base.
🔹 Assess ground levels – Does the surrounding soil slope away from the foundation? A gentle grade helps divert water away instead of allowing it to collect against walls.
🔹 Review your drainage – Gravel against foundation walls can reduce water retention, and sub-surface drains can channel water toward a natural exit.
🔹 Evaluate your waterproofing systems – Review interior (negative side) and exterior (positive side) waterproofing measures. Wall-to-floor joints and retaining walls are common leakage points. High-pressure leak sealing injection can create a flexible waterproof barrier if moisture is present.
