Roof repairs and inspections in Wavell Heights
Wavell Heights is an almost entirely residential suburb about 10.5 km north of the Brisbane CBD. Named after Field Marshal Lord Wavell, it grew quickly during the post-war expansion of Brisbane's northern suburbs.
Wavell Heights State School opened in 1948 and grew to more than 900 students through the 1950s and 1960s. Many homes date from that boom, so roofs here are often 60 to 70 years old.
We are based in Narangba, about 23 km away, and have repaired roofs across the northside since 2002.
Older roofs, common leaks
Post-war roofs leak in a handful of familiar places. We check each of them.
Flashings
Old flashings around chimneys, walls and vents lift and rust.
Tiles and sheets
Cracked tiles and rusted sheets let water in.
Ridges
Cracked pointing loosens ridge caps.
Gutters
Rusted or blocked gutters overflow near the walls.
Fix the leak properly
If the cause is clear, we repair it. If not, an inspection tracks it down first.
When the problem is in one place
Old flashings and cracked tiles on post-war homes are common, fixable causes of leaks.

Questions Wavell Heights owners ask us
Common questions from Wavell Heights homeowners, answered plainly.
Do you work in Wavell Heights?
We do. We regularly travel from Narangba, about 23 km away, to Wavell Heights and the neighbouring suburbs of Chermside, Nundah and Geebung.
Why does my roof leak near the chimney?
The flashing around a chimney is a common weak point on older homes. Once it lifts or rusts, water gets in at the join. Replacing the flashing usually fixes it.
Can you fix a roof that has been patched before?
Yes. We check the old repairs as well as the rest of the area, so the leak is fixed at the source.
Can you just check the roof without quoting for work?
Yes. A roof inspection is a good starting point if you are not sure what the roof needs. We will explain what we find and whether anything needs doing.
