Hail & wind

Hail & wind damage rectification

Hail fractures tiles in ways that surface weeks later, and wind works fasteners loose long after the gust front has passed. Permanent rectification means finding all of the damage, not merely what leaked first, and repairing it with matching or compatible materials in one visit instead of a drip-feed of call-backs.

Scope

What this covers

  • Tile-by-tile inspection with replacement of fractured and displaced units

  • Re-bedding and re-pointing of ridge capping disturbed by wind

  • Replacement of hail-dented or creased metal sheets and flashings

  • Fastener audits on metal roofs after significant wind events

  • Checks of valleys, gutters and downpipes for denting and blockage

Timing

When it's needed

After a confirmed hail cell or damaging winds, an inspection is worth having even without visible leaks, fractured tiles and stretched fasteners fail progressively. Early identification also matters for insurance, since policies deal in the date of the event.

Treat a storm-damaged property as hazardous until proven otherwise: keep clear of sagging ceilings, never approach downed powerlines, and call 000 for life-threatening situations. For storm and flood assistance, the NSW SES attends on 132 500.

What shapes the scope

Roof repairs in NSW are licensed trade work: roof tiling, roof plumbing or general building, depending on what broke. Storm-chasing door-knockers appear after every major event; before engaging anyone, check the licence they quote against the NSW Fair Trading register and be wary of pressure to sign on the spot.
