New Zincalume® Roof Shines bright in Hamlyn Heights
November 23, 2015Re-Roofing Project in Hamlyn Heights
True Blue Roofing Pty Ltd have recently completed this re-roofing project in Hamlyn Heights. Hamlyn Heights is a residential suburb of Geelong. It located to the west of the Geelong CBD on hills that overlook Corio Bay.
The new owners of this sweet weatherboard home decided that it was time for a roof replacement. True Blue Roofing were called upon to supply guardrails, remove the old tiled roof, re-fix existing battens to rafters, lay a new corrugated iron Zincalume® roof, valleys, ridges, flashings and remove the old tiles from the job site.
Given the temperamental weather of the last few weeks, it was great to get a few days of suitable weather to get the old roof removed and the new roof on!
Here are some ‘before’ photos of the home before the roof replacement:
Here are the ‘after’ photos of the home:
As you can see, the new Zincalume® roof gives this home an entirely updated, modern exterior which suits the recent internal renovations which have been completed inside. The home owners loved the new Zincalume® roof and were happy that our staff took the time to ensure the site was clean and tidy with minimal disruption to their lives in their new home throughout the roof replacement process.
It is well worth considering a roof replacement prior to undertaking internal renovations as on a lot of these old weatherboard homes, tiles can fail and allow water to leak through and cause internal damage to plaster, electrical fittings, carpets etc. and become expensive to repair. The new roof not only looks amazing, but eases any stress about the old roof leaking onto a newly renovated home.
We regularly complete re-roofs / roof replacements where we are called upon to arrange the professional removal of asbestos, removal and disposal of old tiles, complete any carpentry works that may be required after the old roof is removed to ensure the new roof is laid on sturdy rafters. We specialise in all aspects of metal roofing including new roofs, re-roofs / roof replacement and all profiles of architectural metal roofing and wall cladding. If you have an old tiled roof that you are thinking about replacing with either Zincalume® or Colorbond®, contact us today.
