Leaking roof repair in Randburg

A leak is a search before it is a repair. Water runs along a rafter or the underside of the sheeting and drips metres from the entry, so the wet patch on the ceiling is rarely above the fault. much of Randburg was built between the 1960s and the 1980s, so its roofs are usually on their second or third coating and the leaks have started to move around.

In Randburg, finding the entry is most of the job. A contractor looks uphill of the wet patch, along the same slope, at the flashings, ridges, valleys and fasteners, rather than at the stain itself.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the leak not above the wet patch?

Water travels along a rafter or the underside of the roof before it drips, so the entry can be metres from where you see it. That is why the roof is read, not the ceiling.

Can a leak be repaired while it is raining?

Usually only temporarily. Most permanent repairs and all waterproofing need a dry surface, so a contractor stops the water now and returns when the roof is dry.

How quickly can a contractor come out?

That depends on the contractor and the season. Say if it is urgent in your enquiry, and expect the honest answer that no one can promise a time.
