Leaks and repairs FAQs

It may be a tough situation, but we're here to help

From having worked on hundreds of leak and repair jobs, we've gathered the most common questions to help you understand the process and what to expect.

Start your roofing request
A leak assessment costs $199 including GST. This includes travel and time on site to inspect and diagnose the cause of the issue. These findings will be discussed with you and presented in writing on request. In some cases the issue can be fixed on the spot for no additional cost; but often the repair will require that we specify specific materials and labour that our roofing marketplace will quote on soon following our visit.
Solutions to leak issues can be as simple as a 5 minute fix or as comprehensive as a complete roof replacement. Once we have inspected the property and diagnosed the issue we will be able to provide pricing promptly via actionable quotes on any viable repair, membrane or replacement options and get you booked in to have this done ASAP.
Absolutely. Chances are if you have had one leak there are more in the pipeline for your roof. We will not only assist in diagnosing and repairing any immediate issues; we will advise and provide quotes on recommended maintenance, upkeep, membrane or replacement steps that you should consider either instead of a repair or alongside one.
Insurance claims have mixed success with regards to leak repair requirements. In a large number of cases a leak is caused by deferred maintenance or roofing that is overdue for replacement. However if an event has caused damage to a roof (severe storm or wind event for example) then insurance is definitely likely to cover it, we can talk you through the situation in detail and provide the paperwork and quotes you need for your insurance claim as required.
Roofbuddy specialises in real people. We answer the phone, visit your property and take the time to talk you through the entire process. Proceed with confidence knowing that you have the best information and quotes at your fingertips and impartial advice from a Roofbuddy consultant to assist you throughout the process.
Leak assessments are invoiced directly from Roofbuddy to the customer who has requested the service. You can book now to provide all the information we require to schedule your leak assessment and process your $199 call out via credit card or online banking.
