Homes tucked into the bush above the Yarra deal with leaf litter, damp shade and big storms. We travel to North Warrandyte to clean, repair, repoint and coat tiled roofs, with a licensed crew and the owner personally on site.
No Fees. No Obligation. Open 7 Days a Week.
North Warrandyte is one of those places where the bush comes right up to the back door. Houses sit among stringybarks and box gums on winding roads above the Yarra, and the setting is beautiful. It is also tough on roofs. Leaves build up quickly, shade keeps tiles damp, and storms can bring down branches with very little warning.
Our approach in North Warrandyte is repair first. We travel out from Cairnlea, inspect the roof with our owner on it, and look for the smallest job that will genuinely solve the problem. Only if the roof is too far gone for that do we talk about restoration, and when we do, we show you the photos that back it up.

Between the tree cover and the river valley, many North Warrandyte homes see far less sun on their roofs than a typical suburban house. That shade, combined with morning mist rising off the Yarra, keeps tiles damp. Moss and lichen thrive in those conditions, and over time they break down the surface of both concrete and terracotta tiles.
Debris is just as big a factor. Leaves and strips of bark settle in valleys and gutters and form a sodden mat that holds water against the metal. Valleys rust from the inside out, and water that cannot drain spills under the tiles. Add the occasional storm dropping a heavy branch, plus the extra care that bushfire-prone homes need around gutters and roof gaps, and it is easy to see why roofs here benefit from regular attention.
The jobs that come up most on homes between the river and the bush:
We get onto the roof itself and work across it slowly, because bush roofs hide things. Under a mat of leaves there may be a rusted valley; behind a clump of moss, a cracked tile. We also check ridges, flashings, gutters and the limbs hanging over them. If there is a manhole, we look up into the ceiling for staining or damp.
Every issue is photographed. You get a simple explanation of what is going on and a written quote that ranks the work by urgency. There is no fee and no commitment.
A restoration makes sense once the problems are spread right across the roof. Telltale signs: tiles still dark a day after rain, ridges letting go on every face, and drips turning up in several rooms.
Restoring the roof starts with a high-pressure clean to strip off moss and lichen. From there we replace damaged tiles, rebed and repoint the ridges and sort out valleys and flashings. The final step is sealing and priming the tiles, then applying a protective coating in your chosen colour. For much less than a new roof, you get one that is clean, sound and ready for many more seasons.

Steep, leafy roofs above the river are not the place for a rushed job. Our owner, with a quarter-century in the trade, is personally present at every North Warrandyte job, keeping the work careful and giving you a single point of contact the whole way through.
We also keep an eye out for anything that could matter in bushfire season, such as gaps under ridge caps or gutters that keep filling, and mention it in our report.
