Bondi Junction is a busy centre of apartment blocks and commercial buildings, surrounded by older semis and terraces. The roofs here are a mix of flat and low pitch roofs on the bigger buildings and traditional tile on the houses around them.
Flat and low pitch roofs hold water longer than a pitched roof. Outlets block with leaf and grit, box gutters lose their fall over time, and the result is a leak into the top floor. Regular clearing is the simplest way to avoid it.
Most roofs on the apartment blocks are common property. We provide photographed reports and itemised quotes that a strata committee can table and approve, and we coordinate access with building managers.
Along the main streets, roofs sit behind parapets that hide them from view. The flashings and cappings on those parapets crack with age and let water into the wall below, often well away from where the stain appears.
The semis and cottages in the streets around the Junction have terracotta and concrete tile roofs with original pointing. Cracked ridge mortar and rusted valleys are the usual causes of leaks on these homes.
Yes. We plan the setup, timing and access so residents can come and go and businesses can keep trading while we are on the roof.
Yes. Every job comes with photos of what we found and what we did, which building managers can keep on file or pass to the committee.
