Roof Leak Repairs

The main reason is that it's hard to know what a roof leak or a leaky roof needs without getting right in there—pulling off roof panels, cutting openings, and testing. Sometimes the problem is obvious, but often it’s not, or there could be multiple issues.

That’s why a roof repair quote doesn't always work. Many people won’t come out to quote, or they may not know what to quote. At Ballast Point, we start the roof leak repair process, and often, we can address some issues right away. If not, we create a plan for moving forward.

We provide fixed-price roof repairs, damp repairs, and full building envelope services. You can easily book us online when you need us, and we’ll come out straight away. We’ll pull things apart, assess, and often make repairs the same day. If we find a bigger issue after opening the roof, we’ll create a scope of work and give you a price for any further repairs needed. Most of the time, we can handle most or all issues during our initial service.

At Ballast Point, we don’t provide quotes upfront—we go straight in and start the repair. Once we’re on-site, we assess the issue by getting hands-on, identifying the problem as we go, and addressing it immediately.

We service the Inner West, Sydney City, the Inner East, including Woollahra and Paddington. We also regularly work in Canada Bay. Our main focus is the Inner West, East, and Sydney City, but we do jobs all over, including roof repairs in Double Bay. We frequently work in suburbs like Balmain, Rozelle, Birchgrove, East Balmain, Lilyfield, Glebe, and Annandale. Just get in touch!

Yes, we handle damp walls, floors, and under-house issues. We replace damp courses, install ventilation, and treat poorly drained walls. Our focus is the building envelope—floors, walls, and drainage. Many damp problems are related to poor drainage, not just moisture. Often, we can resolve moisture issues by redirecting groundwater, a service we include in our roof maintenance and repair offerings.

We’ll send two qualified tradesmen, along with a licensed builder to inspect. You can expect friendly, professional workers who are dedicated to repairing your roof.

We guarantee the workmanship of our repairs. While roofs can have multiple issues, we address the most obvious problems first and sometimes it takes a few attempts to fix everything. We conduct water tests and have a licensed builder inspect the work to ensure quality.

Yes, we offer periodic maintenance, including half-yearly or annual inspections. We can clean gutters and check the roof during these visits.

Our standards are higher than most roofers. Many leaks result from multiple issues, like chimneys and flashings. Unlike others who specialise in one type of roof, our team handles all aspects, from metal roofs to waterproofing chimneys. We assess the entire situation, addressing all contributing factors with our skilled all-rounders, ensuring effective roof maintenance and repair.
