Common Roof Problems We Solve in NSW, QLD and the ACT

Australia’s roofs face a unique mix of challenges, from harsh UV and storms to debris and pest intrusion. At Five Star Roofing, our team sees these problems every day.

Addressing them early helps keep your home dry, safe, and structurally sound, and professional roof repair plays a key role in preventing escalation.

Roof Leaks from Tile and Metal Roofs

Leaks are among the most frequent reasons homeowners call us for roof repair across NSW, QLD and the ACT. Cracked tiles, corroded metal sheeting, and failed flashing are common culprits. In our experience, a water stain on your ceiling or wall is often just the tip of the iceberg; prompt inspection prevents hidden timber rot, mould, and even electrical risks.

Our team finds and fixes leaks at the source, using repair techniques matched to your roof material and the demands of the Australian climate.

Damaged, Broken, or Missing Roofing Materials

Extreme weather, aging, and falling debris can crack or dislodge tiles or metal sheets. Even a single missing tile or dented metal sheet may provide an entry point for water, leading to insulation and potential structural damage over time.

We’re experts in both metal and tiled roof repair, carrying out targeted replacements to close gaps and restore integrity without unnecessary overheads. Our long history in new builds and insurance work means we use quality materials and meet all standards.

Debris Build-Up and Blocked Gutters

Leaves and branches tend to pile up quickly, especially in bush or coastal areas. This organic material traps moisture on the roof, encouraging moss or lichen, and clogs gutters. Regular roof repair and maintenance include clearing debris, inspecting for early damage, and checking water flow.

Done professionally, this helps avoid overflow, leaks, and corrosion, and prevents more expensive issues during storm season.

Faulty Flashing and Storm Damage

Incorrectly installed or deteriorated flashing is another leading cause of roof repair needs in Australia. Flashing protects complex joins and penetrations, so gaps or rust let water in where it can remain hidden.

After storms, we inspect flashing around vents, skylights, and chimneys, repairing or replacing as needed to keep your roof weather-tight. Our team also checks for dents, missing fasteners, and new leaks caused by storm impact.

Roof Repair Services We Offer

Our team at Five Star Roofing provides a wide range of roof repair services across NSW, QLD and the ACT. We focus on solutions tailored to Australian homes, especially metal and tile roofing, to ensure ongoing protection and compliance with local standards.

Roof Leak Detection and Repair

We frequently attend to roof leaks, which can appear far from their actual entry points. We carry out a detailed visual inspection to locate the source, lifting roofing materials when needed, checking the underlay, and resealing flashings so no moisture gets through.

This thorough approach greatly reduces the risk of structural damage and mould buildup.

Tile Replacement and Repointing

Tile roofs need close attention after storms or years of exposure. Our team replaces broken tiles with closely matched materials, checks for underlay issues, and handles rebedding or repointing of ridge caps. This not only keeps your roof watertight but also maintains its appearance and reduces future repair needs.

Metal Roof Repairs and Rust Removal

Metal roofs like Colorbond® or Zincalume sometimes develop rust or loose fixings. We treat and prime rust spots, secure or replace sheets, and reseal fasteners to prevent water ingress. When necessary, we replace corroded sections and check that all repairs meet the strict safety and fire standards for Australian homes.

Flashing, Gutter, and Valley Repairs

Water often finds its way in through damaged flashings or blocked drainage. We repair and, if needed, replace flashings to keep vulnerable roof penetrations secure. Our technicians also clear and patch gutters, downpipes, and valleys, keeping the property safe from overflows and water damage.

Our focus is long-lasting workmanship for all roof repairs, big or small. If you’d like more information or to arrange an assessment, contact Five Star Roofing, and we’ll be in touch to help.

How We Handle Roof Repairs in NSW, QLD and the ACT

We understand the importance of a solid roof overhead, especially in our climate. Here’s how our team at Five Star Roofing handles roof repairs, making it as straightforward as possible for you.

1. Assess Your Roof’s Condition

First, we offer a no-obligation inspection to understand the condition of your roof. Our team checks for signs of storm damage, leaks, and wear on both tile and metal roofs, ensuring nothing gets missed.

2. Plan Genuine Repairs

If repairs are the right option, we’ll map out exactly what needs fixing and explain why. This can include replacing cracked tiles, resealing flashings, or sorting out small leaks, always aiming to extend your current roof’s life rather than jumping straight into a replacement.

3. Carry Out Repair Work

Once you’re comfortable with the plan, we get started with the repairs. Our team works with care around your property, taking proper steps to secure the area and handle materials safely. We keep you updated as we go, so there are no surprises.

4. Conduct Post-Repair Inspection & Handover

After repair work wraps up, we carry out a careful final check to confirm all issues are fully resolved. We walk you through what’s been done and share any recommendations to help extend the life of your roof.

Frequently Asked Questions

As a general suggestion, restoration is ideal when your roof has widespread wear, such as faded or worn surfaces, minor leaks, or moss growth, but the underlying structure (rafters and battens) is still in sound condition. In these scenarios, restoration is more comprehensive than a repair, as it includes cleaning, minor fixes, and recoating, which can revive the entire roof and extend its lifespan by 10 to 15 years.

Compared to a basic repair, which targets only one or two specific issues, restoration is a cost-effective choice for older roofs showing uniform ageing, with typical pricing across Australia ranging from around $2,500 up to $12,000, depending on size and material.

At Five Star Roofing, we offer free assessments to help you determine if a restoration or repair best suits your needs. Reach out for tailored advice or to arrange an inspection today.

Roof repair costs in Australia can range significantly based on the type and extent of damage, the roofing material, and site accessibility. Minor repairs to fix leaks or replace a few cracked tiles might start from a few hundred dollars, while more complex jobs like extensive tile replacement or flashing repairs could be anywhere between $500 and $3,500.

For storm-related repairs to metal or tile roofs, costs may trend higher if the damage is widespread or hard to access. Additional factors include roof pitch, whether scaffolding is needed, and how easily matching materials can be sourced.

At Five Star Roofing, we provide free inspections and tailored quotes to ensure you know exactly what to expect before any work begins.
If you are unsure about the scope or price for your roof repair, get in touch with us for an obligation-free assessment.

In many cases, roof repairs for storm or accidental damage in Australia can be covered by your home insurance policy, but it is important to check the specifics of your cover.

Generally, sudden events like hail, fallen branches, or heavy storms are included, while gradual wear and tear are not. To start a claim, contact your insurer promptly and document the damage with photos.

At Five Star Roofing, we regularly assist homeowners in documenting issues and supplying professional repair quotes that insurers require. We can even liaise with your insurance company to help streamline the process.

If you are unsure about your eligibility for a claim or need a detailed inspection after a weather event, reach out to us for a free assessment and expert guidance.

For most standard roof repairs across Australia, such as replacing a few cracked tiles, fixing minor leaks, or patching flashing, the process can usually be completed within one to two days, depending on weather conditions and site accessibility.

More extensive repairs, like significant tile or sheet replacement after a major storm, can take several days, especially if scaffolding is required or if materials need to be specially ordered.

At Five Star Roofing, we work efficiently to minimise disruption and always keep you informed of our expected timelines before work begins. If you have an urgent issue or a complex roof layout, let us know, and we can provide a more precise estimate after a free assessment.
