Tiled Roof Repairs From People Who Work on Tiled Roofs Every Day

Almost every home needs a roof repair at some point. When yours does, you want a team that knows tiled roofs inside out.

Your roof protects everything underneath it, but a tiled roof can look fine from the street while water is getting in through a cracked tile, failed pointing or a worn valley.

We specialise in concrete and terracotta tiled roofs, so we know where each type of tiled roof tends to fail. We book you into our next roof inspection day, inspect the whole roof rather than only the tile you have spotted, and send you a clear quote before any repair starts.

  • Detailed quotes, no hidden fees
  • Concrete & terracotta tiles
  • Damage & insurance repairs

Tile Roof Repair Services We Provide

We carry out every type of tiled roof repair, from a single cracked tile to leaks, valleys and ridge capping.

  • Slipped & Loose Tile Repairs

    Slipped or loose concrete and terracotta tiles are set back in line and secured before water finds a way in.

  • Roof Condition Reports

    An honest, detailed report on the condition of your roof and any work it may need.

  • Damaged Roof Repairs

    When a fallen tree, a branch or severe hail damages your roof, we replace the broken tiles, ridge capping and valleys and secure them, so the roof is watertight again.

  • Insurance Repair Work

    We carry out insurance repairs on tiled roofs and provide a detailed quote that sets out the damage and the repair needed for your claim.

Why a Tile Roof Repair Is Worth Doing Early

A leak is not always easy to spot. Sometimes there are drips or water stains on the ceiling, but often the damage stays hidden in the roof space.

  • Wet Insulation

    Water can soak and damage ceiling insulation, which makes your home harder to heat and cool.

  • Damage to the Roof Framing

    Ongoing moisture can rot timber roof framing. It is rare, but the sooner a leak is fixed, the lower the risk.

  • Mould Inside the Home

    Leaks let mould and mildew take hold inside your home. Keeping water out protects your air quality and your family’s health.

  • Bigger Repair Bills

    Problems caught early are quicker and cheaper to fix than problems that have been leaking for months.

Signs Your Tiled Roof Needs Repairing

A leak is the most obvious sign you need a roofer, but it is not the only one. Please do not climb onto the roof to check the tiles yourself. Tiles crack easily underfoot and roofs are dangerous, so book a free assessment and let us take a look.

  1. Your roof is more than 10 years old

    After a decade, roofing materials start to wear from constant exposure to the weather. It is worth booking an inspection, even if you cannot see a problem.

  2. Missing, cracked or damaged tiles

    Whether tiles have slipped, cracked with age or been hit by a falling branch, gaps give water and pests a way into your home.

  3. Water stains or drips inside

    Stains, damp patches or drips on your ceiling usually mean water is already getting through. The sooner it is fixed, the less damage it does.

  4. Cracked or missing flashing

    Flashing directs water away from the joins in your roof. When it is cracked or missing, moisture can seep between and beneath the tiles.

Justin was really accomodating in coming over quickly to repair our roof in the rain. He was transparent with the issue and cost, which was very reasonable, a great communicator and I would highly recommend.

Highly recommended! 5/5 Traditional Roofing were prompt, punctual and professional. Justin was on time, polite, and able to quickly diagnose my roof leak - where previous inspections by other contractors had been unable to confirm the leak. The repair was completed within a few days, at a very reasonable price. TR would be my 1# choice for any future repairs or maintenance on my roof. Couldn't be happier!

Justin was wonderful, thorough and informative when he came out to look at my roof. He took photos and showed me areas of defect that unless you're on the roof you could not see. When his team came to complete the works they were polite, decent young men who did a fantastic job, cleaned up after themselves and honestly I was so very pleased for all they did to restore my roof. It looks fantastic now and I'm no longer anxious when it rains heavily or storms. Again, they took pictures of works completed and they were very professional as well as being lovely individuals. Without hesitation I would 100% recommend Justin and his team to anyone, family, friend, stranger. If you want a job well done at a reasonable cost with exceptional results, look no further.

We needed to get some maintenance done on our roof. I wanted to use a local person. I spoke to Justin from Traditional Roofing, on the phone, he arranged to come to do a quote. He arrived when he said he would, and went onto the roof to have a look, then explained what needed doing, which was replacing a few tiles and repointing, and that the rest of the roof was good, and did not need anything else doing. He said how long the job would take, also when he was available to do it. Justin gave me a rough price and that he would email the quote. This confirmed my feeling I had the right person for the job. Justin has done fantastic job, the roof looks great. I would definitely recommend him, he is a good and honest person, professional, efficient, polite and very easy to deal with. He understands the whole task in detail.

Justin's team did a terrific job on replacing tiles, repointing and painting our roof, they cleaned the gutters and hosed down the fences. His team were professional, efficient, polite, friendly and respectful of the property. We highly recommend Traditional Roofing. We have already had people walking down the street stop and ask about the roof and we were happy to recommend them. Thanks Justin and his professional team.

Tile Roof Repair Questions

Straight answers about roof leaks, tile repairs, insurance work and booking an assessment with our family team.

Still have a question?

Book a free roof assessment online, or give us a call and we’ll be happy to help.

The most common signs are leaks, water stains on the ceiling, cracked, slipped or missing tiles, crumbling pointing on the ridge capping and rusted valley irons. If your roof is more than ten years old, it is worth having it checked even if you cannot see a problem. You can book a free roof assessment online.

Yes, for homes local to us in Sunbury. If a section of your roof has been damaged and is open to the weather, call us once the weather has cleared. We do a small make-safe, covering the exposed section to keep the rain out, then come back and repair it properly.

Yes. We carry out insurance repairs on tiled roofs, including damage from fallen trees and severe hail. We inspect the roof and give you a detailed quote that sets out the damage and the repair needed, then complete the repair.

If the problem is limited to a few tiles, a valley or a section of ridge capping, a tile roof repair is usually all you need. If the whole roof is showing its age, with faded, porous tiles and cracked pointing all over, a roof restoration is often better value than repairing it one section at a time. We recommend whichever option suits your roof and explain the reasons at the assessment.

The cost depends on the size of your roof, what is causing the problem and the repair needed. We start with a free roof assessment and then send a clear, detailed quote that includes everything, with no hidden fees or extras added at the end.

Water can get in through cracked pointing, deteriorated bedding, slipped tiles, rusted valley irons or damaged flashing. It often travels along the roof before it shows up inside, so the stain may be nowhere near the cause. We inspect the roof to find the real source and repair it.

Yes. We replace single tiles as well as larger areas. We source the closest match available to your existing concrete or terracotta tiles so the repair blends in as well as possible.

We only work on concrete and terracotta tiled roofs, and we repair them in Sunbury, across Greater Melbourne and in the Macedon Ranges. If you are not sure whether we cover your suburb, book a free roof assessment or give us a call.
