Local focus
Working in Dee Why
Dee Why has changed a lot, with apartment buildings around the town centre and beachfront, but the streets behind it are still full of brick-and-tile family homes from the 1950s to the 1970s.
Many of those homes are on their original tiled roofs. After 50 years or more of coastal weather, porous tiles, broken ridge capping and blocked valleys are a common cause of leaks.
Roofing work in Dee Why
For older tiled roofs, we start with an honest inspection. Sometimes a targeted repair to ridge capping, valleys or a few broken tiles is all that is needed. Where the tiles are failing across the whole roof, a tile to metal re-roof is often better value long-term.
Closer to the beach and on the headland, salt and wind take a toll on flashings, gutters and metal roofs, so we specify materials to suit.
Before you start
Worth knowing before roof work in Dee Why
Hillside homes
Many streets in Dee Why, Narraweena and Collaroy Plateau are steep. Access for ladders, scaffolding and materials is planned at the inspection.
Apartment buildings
Roofs and gutters on apartment buildings are usually common property, so the strata committee needs to approve the work.
Asbestos in older homes
Homes built before about 1990 may contain asbestos in eaves, flues or roof sheets. Tell us if you think your home might, as it must be handled under SafeWork NSW rules.

Questions
Dee Why FAQs
