Local focus

Working in North Sydney

North Sydney packs a lot of variety into a small area: harbourside terraces in Kirribilli and McMahons Point, Federation homes in Crows Nest and Neutral Bay, apartment towers, and the office buildings of the North Sydney business district.

Each brings different roofing challenges: older roofs and shared walls, salt air off the harbour, heritage controls and strict building rules.

Roofing in North Sydney

Older tiled roofs, box gutters between terraces and parapet walls are some of the most common sources of leaks around North Sydney. Closer to the harbour, salt air also takes a toll on flashings, fixings and metal roofs.

We inspect before we quote, explain what we find and give you a written quote for repairs, a new metal roof, a full replacement or guttering.

Before you start

Worth knowing before roof work in North Sydney

Heritage conservation areas

Much of North Sydney is covered by heritage conservation areas. Changing roof materials on a heritage item or contributory building may need council approval. Check with North Sydney Council early.

Strata approvals

In apartment buildings, roofs and gutters are usually common property. Work on them needs approval from the owners corporation or strata committee.

Parking and street access

Narrow streets in Kirribilli, Lavender Bay and McMahons Point make access and parking part of planning any job. Skip bins, scaffolding or work zones on a public road need council approval.
