07 / Common questions

Roofing questions,
answered.

How fast can you respond to an emergency roof leak in Hobart?

We aim to have a roof plumber on site the same day for emergencies. After hours, our on-call crew will make your roof safe and watertight, with the permanent repair booked in after.

Are you licensed and insured for roof work in Tasmania?

Yes. We're licensed Tasmanian roof plumbers, members of Master Plumbers Tasmania, and we carry public liability and workers' compensation insurance.

What types of roofs do you work on?

Colorbond and metal, tile, slate, membrane, and architectural profiles for commercial builds.

Do you offer a workmanship guarantee?

Yes. All our roof work carries a workmanship guarantee, on top of the manufacturer warranties covering the materials we install.

Do you handle insurance claim roof repairs?

Yes. We provide the reports and documentation your insurer needs and liaise with assessors where required.

Do you do gutters as well as roofs?

Yes: gutter repairs and replacement, downpipes, leaf guard and gutter cleaning. Blocked gutters cause a lot of the leaks we're called out for.

What's the difference between a roof plumber and a roofer?

A roof plumber is licensed for the plumbing side of a roof, flashings, gutters, downpipes and stormwater, as well as the roof sheeting itself. In Tasmania, roof drainage work must be done by a licensed plumber.
