What do I do when my roof is leaking?

Picture this….it's raining cats and dogs outside, and hear a drip coming from another room in the house. You run in there to check the window hasn't been left ajar, only to find that the water is actually seeping through a crack in the ceiling. What do you do now?

The first step is to call a licensed roofing contractor to repair the leak so there is no further ceiling damage or any water leaking onto electrical wiring. (So if you have stumbled across this article while frantically trying to find assistance on the Gold Coast, feel free to call me now!)

My phone often gets a bit of a workout when the weather turns foul for a few days, from unlucky home owners in exactly this predicament. If you are in the same boat, don't panic, just give me a buzz.

If things are looking a bit more serious and the damage has left gaping holes in your roof, the SES can also help with providing tarps for severely affected areas.

Here's the link to SES Queensland.

Rob came out to my home and quoted on a full roof restoration quite some time before he commenced works. I asked him if the quote was still valid. Rob was very communicative, helpful and I found him to be a very Professional, reliable, a man of his word. The works took approximately 3 days and all the while, Rob communicated with me about times and stood by his original quote. I would not hesitate to give Coastal Restorations 5 Stars and recommend his company and workers to anyone wanting a reliable, honest Trademan which are difficult to find. The work was completed and our home left tidy and all debris etc removed. The former Roofer I contacted on recommendation from my neighbours, failed three times to show, was non responsive and totally unreliable. In this day and age, it's becoming more difficult to find Tradespeople of integrity. Not with Rob. With his years of experience, excellent reviews, 10 year guarantee on his work: you can't go wrong engaging him. His communication, integrity; won't be disappoint you. Many thanks to Rob and Liam for an excellent job well done promptly. And with an excellent Tradesman, it's always a sign of respect and gratitude to pay them promptly.

Rob and his team (Jamie & Liam) provided piece of mind from start to finish, completing my mother's full roof restoration within said timeframe. His team 's work ethic demonstrated a professional and hard working approach. Jamie particularly was always happy to answer any question. I only wish this business operated outside of the Gold Coast so I could have my home roof restored in Brisbane by Rob's business. Pleased to go on record and state how happy I was with the result of thier work.

Coastal Roof Restoration did a great job on the roof of my new home, the staff were knowledgeable and experienced. They worked constantly to ensure that the work was done right the first time.

Coastal Roof Restorations did a great job on our roof! They were able to start in just a few weeks, and turned up exactly when they said they would. Rob the owner was great to deal with, and Liam who did our roof was a friendly hard working guy, who did an excellent job. All of the tile repairs, repointing, pressure cleaning, painting prep, and roof painting that Liam did was done to an excellent standard, and we love the end result. Roof looks top notch! Great price too, and cheaper than two other quotes we got. Thanks Liam and Rob, we would definitely recommend you to others :-)

From the 1st time Rob came out to inspect my roof for repairs, I was impressed with his professionalism and received a quote that afternoon.

Very pleased with the job. Rob was immediately responsive to our initial enquiry and turned up on time, as arranged, to quote. He kept in touch with estimated lead times and always did what he said he would do. Jamie did a great job with the clean, prep and paint, and was also on time at the arranged times. Their reliability and timeliness is really appreciated because, although it should be expected and is not the hard part, it is now so common that providers don't communicate and don't show up. It was a real pleasure dealing with these guys and their "old school" reliability, experience and pride in their work.

Coastal Roof Restorations were superbly efficient. We organised a roof repair from New Zealand (for an elderly parent on her Gold Coast property). Rob is an excellent communicator and we had absolute confidence he would carry out the work to an extremely high standard. The owner of the property was impressed with his honest, friendly and professional manner and is delighted with the end result. We will certainly use Rob again for any further roof maintenance work required. Marj & Peter Ayson

Very pleased with the team from Coastal Roof Restorations. We’ve only moved into this house 3 weeks ago & the old red roof was desperate of some TLC!! Rob replied promptly & within 2 weeks the lovely Jamie was here transforming our roof. He is a hard worker & very personable, we couldn’t believe how much he got done every single day! We went for the colour Monument & it is gorgeous. Next step, painting the rest of the house (goodbye orange) to make it as beautiful as the roof.

We found Rob at Coastal Roof Restorations via Google Search and Reviews - these were outstanding, so we're happy to add to the positive vibes out there for his business. Both Rob and his team member Liam were professional, courteous and timely. The pricing was reasonable relative to industry standards and considering the rave reviews on his work, so no need to look further. Job was very well done - on time and on budget. Just need to get the gutters and gables painted a complimentary colour in a couple of weeks time and the place will look brand new.

Blake attended my property and within 10 minutes on the roof, had deciphered the root cause of the leak and the issues pertaining to the leak we'd experienced during last year's inclement weather. His knowledge was refreshing given the number of "experts" we'd had attend our property previously. Communication was great, he attended when he said he would and returned to complete the works when rain was prohibitive to the works. Carlos who attended to wash the roof was very thorough and passionate about his work, sharing numerous photos of our roof. I have no hesitation in recommending Blake and his team.

Very pleased with the job that Rob and Liam did with our roof. We had the roof cleaned, some tiles replaced and then we had it painted. Rob was very professional in the way he communicated with me the whole way through and the roof looks incredible now thanks to the paint job that Liam did for us. I was surprised with how quickly Rob was able to come out and do the quote and then within a couple of weeks; our roof is looking superb. Couldn’t speak more highly of Coastal Roof Restorations.
