Dealing with a leaking roof

You will know you need help with a leaking roof by observing the signs. You might see water stains on your ceiling, perhaps even down the walls. You might have a problem with dampness lifting the wallpaper, you might hear it when it rains. If you think you have a problem do a search online for leaking roof repairs near me or just give us a call. A professional plumber will come and do a visual inspection, possibly a water test inspection and then talk to you about repairs.

1. Making a visual inspection – The first step in successful Gold Coast and Brisbane roof leak repairs is assessing that there is a leak and finding where it is. Our expert will come to your home and have a look in the attic, and look for signs such as mould, black marks, water stains and such. If the attic is not accessible then they will go into the roof paying special attention to where things protrude from the roof like vents or the chimney.
2. Performing a water test inspection – Sometimes a visual inspection does not reveal enough information so before we talk about leaking roof repairs we will need to carry out a water test inspection. We will ask someone to stay in the home and then turn on a hose on the roof around where the stains are. When water appears the person inside can let us know. In somewhere like the attic, you can push a nail into the spot where the water came in. If for some reason our plumber finds this water test does not show where the leak is they will remove shingles in the area until they expose it.
3. Making repairs – There are a number of things we can do at Ryan Old Plumbing to start exploring repair options. If it is from a plumbing vent boot then the base can be examined to check to see if there is a crack if it is plastic or if the seams are broken on one with a metal base. Rubber boots can also have issues with rotting. In some cases, the solution is repairing the vent boot but some might need replacing.
