Roofs in Newtown

Newtown is rows of Victorian terraces and shopfronts, and almost every roof here is joined to the one next door.

Terraces share party walls, parapets and often a box gutter between them. A leak can start on one roof and show up in the next ceiling along, so finding the real source matters more here than anywhere.

Along the main street the shopfronts hide their roofs behind tall parapets. Those roofs are low-pitch, often iron, with box gutters and outlets that block with leaf and rubbish. The cappings and flashings on top of the parapet crack with age and let water into the walls.

Access is through narrow streets and rear lanes, with very little room to set up, so every job is planned around how we get to the roof and how we protect what is below it.

Our Inner West work is fully insured. NSW contractor licence 500439C, held by Sergio Olea.

Frequently Asked Questions

We can repair your side, but a shared box gutter works as one piece. If the blockage or the damage is on the other side, we show you with photos so both owners can decide together.

Yes. We clear the box gutters and outlets, check the parapet cappings and flashings, and fix the small problems that cause leaks into the shop or the flat above.

Terraces, party walls and shopfront parapets

Newtown is built in rows: Victorian terraces in the side streets and shopfronts along the main road. Roofs here are joined to their neighbours, which shapes how leaks happen and how they get fixed.

Party walls and shared gutters

Terraces share walls, parapets and often the box gutter between them. Flashings along the party wall are a common leak point, and water can travel from one property to the next before it shows.

Shopfront roofs

The roofs behind the shopfront parapets are low pitch and hidden from the street. Box gutters and outlets fill with leaf and debris, and cracked parapet cappings let water into the brickwork.

Rear wings and skillions

Most terraces have a skillion roof over the back wing, joined to the main roof with a flashing that takes a lot of movement. That join is one of the first places we check.

Tight access

Narrow streets and rear lanes leave little room to set up. Every job is planned around access, and the property and its neighbours are protected while we work.

Questions from Newtown

Is Newtown in a heritage area?

Large parts are. If your terrace is in a conservation area, repairs keep the original materials and look, and it is worth checking with council before any change to the roof.

Why does water come through our ceiling when the roof looks fine?

On a terrace, water often gets in at the party wall flashing, the box gutter or the join to the back wing, then travels along the framing. We trace it back to where it actually gets in.
