PERTH ROOF REPAIR GUIDE / ELLIS SERVICES GROUP
Roof Inspection Checks Before Perth Winter Rain
We check Perth tile and metal roofs before winter rain, looking for damaged coverings, loose roof connections and drainage problems. This guide explains what we look at and how the findings help you plan repairs and maintenance.
We provide: Roof inspectionDiscuss your roof repair
Inspecting tiles and metal sheets before wet weather
On tiled roofs, we look for cracked, missing or displaced tiles and check the nearby ridge caps and junctions. On metal roofs, we check the sheets, fixings, overlaps and capping in the areas included in the inspection.
We base repair recommendations on the damage we can inspect and the condition of the surrounding roof. The findings may support replacing a few tiles or fixings, repairing a connection, or investigating a wider area.
Checking ridge, wall and penetration connections
We check ridge and hip capping, roof-to-wall flashings and roof openings for loose or damaged connections. Where a leak has been reported, we inspect these details with the adjoining tiles or sheets.
Around chimneys and vents, the flashing and surrounding roof need checking together. Our notes explain which parts need attention and what work is recommended.
Following drainage through valleys, gutters and downpipes
We follow the visible drainage route through valleys, gutters and outlets. Leaves and debris may need clearing, while rust holes, split joints or damaged sections may need repairs.
At our WA 6121 job, we combined valley cleaning with tile repairs. View the tile and drainage project
Turning inspection findings into repair priorities
We explain what needs repairing, which areas were checked and any limits on the inspection. The findings help separate work that needs attention first from maintenance that can be planned for later.
Before the visit, tell us your suburb, roof material if known, leak and repair history, and any access restrictions. Existing photos can help, but are optional. Leave roof access to our team.
For a strata property, an authorised contact also needs to arrange access and confirm who can approve the work. Strata roof repair arrangements
Second assessments and repair evidence
A second assessment can be useful when the cause remains unclear, leaks recur or competing quotes propose very different work. Share the earlier findings and repair history, and ask what the new assessment will examine. It should clarify evidence and limitations, not simply promise that another patch will work.
For an occupied business property, our commercial roof repair service explains the access, operating-hour and work-approval details to confirm before repairs.
Inspection findings and maintenance priorities
Roof condition inspection and ongoing maintenance
Inspection identifies roof condition and priorities. Maintenance includes the agreed clearing, upkeep and local repairs that follow those findings; the scope distinguishes each task.
Proposed repair components, materials and access
Our proposed repair scope identifies the affected components, recommended work, materials, access and included tasks. We explain which repairs take priority and which maintenance items can be planned for later.

Our inspection and maintenance photographs record roof components and subsequent work at one property. The strata gutter-edge and joint work photographs show preparation and local treatment; they are not a leak investigation report or a whole-roof replacement record.
Safe ground-level observations before inspection
Do not climb ladders, access roofs or approach damaged electrical equipment to collect information. Do not work from a roof or elevated gutter without controlled access. Photographs are optional and do not replace an on-site assessment by Ellis Services Group.
Inspection fees and agreed access
Inspection components, fees and records

Relevant coverings, ridges, flashings, penetrations and drainage should be considered within the accessible scope.
