Gutter and Roof Repairs is a Brisbane concrete, terracotta and tile roof repairs expert. We offer quality and competitively priced tile roof repairs.
There is a host of reasons tiled roofs need repair. Some reasons are pretty obvious like:
- Broken or missing tiles
- Major leaks during rain
Others causes are a little more subtle:
- Hearing drips in the middle of the night when you have a light shower of rain
- The pointing being cracked, broken or just plain missing (the pointing is what holds your tiles in place, without it there’s a good chance tiles will move in heavy wind or storms and once one tile moves, typically others will follow).

Tile Roof Inspection to Identify Issues
We offer a free roof inspection to identify any issues including:
- Cracked tiles
- Missing tiles
- Tiles that have moved or are out of place
- Cracked, broken or missing pointing (also called ridges or capping)
- Leaks in your roof
- Bits of tiles or pointing in your gutters or down pipes
- Storm damage
- Hail damage
Can Hail Damage a Tiled Roof
Hail can damage a tile roof but it’s not always easy to identify. Most hail damage tends to be aesthetic (minor cracks), which won’t necessarily cause a problem. However, if moisture penetrates any cracks, it can damage your roof cavity, ceiling, walls and light fittings. Mould and water damage to your internal structures and ceilings can become a big and costly issue.
This sort of damage may not become apparent until you notice mould or damp spots, so it’s best to have your roof tiles inspected regularly for any damage, especially after hail.
How Long Does It Take To Repair a Tile Roof
This will depend on the extent of the damage that’s occurred. If for example your tile roof was damaged in a storm or a tree has fallen and caused damage this will be a much larger job than simply replacing a few cracked tiles or a complete roof restoration.
Most jobs we have completed for happy customers in the past take only 2-3 days but the best way to find out is to contact us on 0421 460 580 and get us out for an inspection.
What Happens if It Rains During Roof Repairs
Brisbane is known for its afternoon storms and sometimes fast moving weather patterns. If we’re repairing your roof we continually monitor weather patterns and keep up-to-date with weather projections from the Bureau of Meteorology. With this in mind we take appropriate steps to tarp up your roof to ensure it’s fully watertight if we need to leave any part of your roof exposed overnight and there’s a chance of rain.
