Roof Maintenance Plans in Upper Hutt

For Upper Hutt roofs under trees, a maintenance plan built around moss treatment and spouting clears does more than any other single thing to extend roof life.

Roof Maintenance Plans on Upper Hutt roofs

Shaded Upper Hutt roofs grow moss and lichen faster than most. A treatment and a regular spouting clear does more for these roofs than almost anything else.

A metal roof lasts longer when it is washed and checked regularly. Salt and dirt that sit on sheltered parts of the roof cause corrosion that rain does not wash away.

The result is a different set of roof problems from the coast: moss and lichen on shaded slopes, leaves filling spouting and valleys, and damp that sits on a roof longer after rain.

BRANZ recommends washing painted metal roofs every year, or every 6 months in severe marine areas. (BRANZ, Replacing a profiled metal roof)

What to look for

• Washing the roof, including sheltered areas
• Clearing spouting and checking downpipes
• Checking fixings, flashings and penetrations

Every job follows the same steps: we look at the roof, photograph what we find, send a written quote, then send photos of the finished work. More about roof Maintenance Plans.
