FAQs

Like with other building projects, re-roofing comes in a number of stages, from the initial preparation to pre-installation prepping until the completion of the re-roofing process. For a standard house, re-roofing usually takes four to five days. For larger and more complex projects, such as commercial roofs, we may take up to a couple of weeks to complete the task.

The length of time it will take to re-roof your house depends on the size and complexity of your roof, pertaining to the angles, valleys, pitch, and the like. Other factors that may come into play are weather conditions, roof accessibility, and the time of the year.

Yes, it is! We stand by the quality of our workmanship and our choice of materials. That’s why we provide a seven-year workmanship warranty on all our projects. Meanwhile, the products we use also come with up to 30 years of material warranty.

Please note that warranties vary on materials, depending on your home’s proximity to “breaking surf.” How far inland your house will tell us how much the roofing material will be distressed by salt-bearing sea breezes. We will provide you with the warranty details so you know what to expect and how you can claim against it in case something goes wrong.

No, you don’t! A building permit may not always be required for re-roofing. However, some factors call for licences from the city council. For example, if your current roof is to be re-roofed with similar material, such as tile or sheet, approval may not be needed.

On the other hand, if the existing tile material is re-roofed with sheets, structural implications may be considered. Insulation and underlays, as well as the presence of asbestos, may call for a licence or permit from authorities. But don’t worry; Perth Re-Roofing takes care of all of this for you. We do all the legwork to make the process easier and in compliance.

We do not require you or any member of your household to be present as we re-roof your home. However, should anyone be in the vicinity, we will make sure that they are safe. Perth Re-Roofing always guarantees every individual’s safety and property, as well.

Yes, we do! We are covered by public liability insurance, giving you the peace of mind needed if ever our staff causes any damage or injury to your property.

For building projects costing over $20,000, the law obliges you to have indemnity insurance. This insurance protects your investment in the future if the building company goes out of business. With this policy, you’re covered for the cost of repairs and maintenance that would otherwise be covered by your warranty.

We will organise your insurance for you, and the cost will be shown on your contract. We will provide you with insurance certificates, as well, before the commencement of your project.
