On the Sunshine Coast, our homes are regularly exposed to sun, rain, and sometimes severe storms. Your roof and gutter system are your primary defence against these elements, channelling water away from your property's foundation and preventing internal water damage. At Aqua Direct Plumbing, we specialise in roof and gutter plumbing repairs, ensuring your home remains watertight and secure.
A leaky roof or overflowing gutters might seem like minor annoyances, but they can lead to significant and expensive damage. Water penetrating your roof can damage ceilings, walls, insulation, and even electrical wiring, fostering mould growth and compromising your home's structural integrity. Blocked or damaged gutters can cause water to pool around your foundation, potentially leading to foundation cracks, damp crawl spaces, and even pest infestations. Proper roof and gutter maintenance is crucial for protecting your most valuable asset – your home – from the damaging effects of water. It also helps preserve your home's exterior and landscaping.
Do inspect your gutters regularly, especially after heavy rain or strong winds, and clear them of leaves, twigs, and debris.
Do look for signs of water stains on your ceilings or walls, which can indicate a roof leak.
Do address any overflowing gutters promptly, as this often indicates a blockage or incorrect slope.
Don't attempt to walk on a wet or damaged roof yourself, as this can be extremely dangerous. Always call a professional.
Don't ignore minor leaks. Even a small drip can cause significant, hidden damage over time.
Don't let debris accumulate in your gutters for extended periods. This can cause blockages and lead to corrosion of the guttering itself.
We can handle a range of issues, from sealing minor leaks and replacing damaged sections of guttering to clearing stubborn downpipe blockages. Our goal is to ensure your roof and gutter system effectively protects your home, especially during our Queensland storm season.
