The First Hours After a Melbourne Storm
What you do in the first few hours after a storm can limit the damage. Once everyone is safe:
- Stay clear of fallen power lines: Report them to your electricity distributor or call 000.
- Switch off power to wet areas: At the switchboard, if water is near lights or outlets.
- Move valuables and catch water: Buckets, towels, and plastic sheeting help indoors.
- Photograph everything: Inside and out, before anything is moved.
- Call us to make the roof safe: We will give you an honest timeframe.
How We Triage Storm Calls Across Melbourne
After a big Melbourne storm, calls come in faster than any roofer can attend. We sort them so the most urgent jobs come first:
- Open roofs: Missing tiles or sheets letting rain straight in.
- Water near electrics: Leaks over lights, power points, or switchboards.
- Vulnerable households: Elderly residents, young families, and people with health needs.
- Contained leaks: Where water is caught and the roof is mostly intact.
Tarping That Holds in Melbourne Gusts
A tarp that flaps loose in the next gust can cause more damage than it prevents. We secure tarps over the ridge and weigh or fix them so they hold through Melbourne’s gusty conditions.
Where it is safe, we refit tiles or sheets instead, which is more secure than a tarp.
Trees on Roofs in Leafy Melbourne Suburbs
Melbourne’s established suburbs have large gums and street trees that can come down in a storm. If a tree is on your roof, an arborist or emergency service usually needs to remove it first.
Once it is clear, we make the roof watertight the same day where possible, then assess battens, tiles, and gutters for the permanent repair.
Records for Your Insurer
Insurers usually want to see the damage before it is fixed. We photograph the damage before and after the make-safe work, note the likely cause, and provide an itemised quote for the permanent repair, so you have what you need to lodge your claim quickly.
From Make-Safe to Permanent Repair
Once the roof is secure and conditions settle, we return for the permanent repair, with a fixed written quote first.
