Planned programs

Roof maintenance Sydney

A planned program for commercial property, schools, churches and portfolios — the annual inspection, the gutters and drainage, the small fixes done on the visit, and the dated record that keeps the warranty alive. Across Sydney and NSW.

What you are actually buying

A roof that gets looked at before it leaks, and proof that it was.

A planned program is not a cleaning contract with a roofer’s name on it. It is an annual inspection of every roof you own, drone and on foot, with the gutters and drainage cleared and checked on the same visit, the small defects fixed while we are up there, and every one of those things photographed, dated and filed against the building.

The point is the record as much as the roof. The standard COLORBOND® steel warranty excludes failure to remove debris or to allow free drainage, and in a claim the owner carries the onus of proving the maintenance was done. A program produces that proof as a by-product of doing the work. The full warranty argument is on the division page →

What is in the program

01

Annual roof inspection

Every roof in the portfolio, drone and on foot, every element photographed and graded. The baseline that everything else is measured against. How we inspect →

02

Gutters, sumps & downpipes

Box gutters, sumps, rain heads and downpipes cleared and checked for free drainage — the failure the standard COLORBOND® warranty excludes.

03

Flashings, penetrations & plant

Every place something comes through the roof or sits on it. Sealed, fixed and recorded before it becomes a leak.

04

Fresh-water wash

Areas the rain never reaches — under eaves, behind plant, beneath solar — washed to the schedule the warranty sets, and photographed done.

05

Minor rectification on the visit

Slipped sheets, lifted flashings, open joints, cracked slates. Fixed while we are there, rather than written up for a second visit.

06

The record

A dated photographic file per roof per visit, a defect register with what was found and what was done, and a forward budget for what is coming.

Who this is for

01

Property portfolios

Multiple sites, one program, one contractor, one record. The roof you have not been to this year is the one that fails.

02

Schools & universities

Term-time access planned around students. Working With Children Checks current on every attending worker.

03

Churches & institutions

Heritage slate, lead and copper on the same program as the modern halls beside them — one crew that does both.

04

Strata & commercial owners

A defensible maintenance record for the warranty, the insurer and the next capital works submission.

Single homes are better served by our residential team. A program is built for buildings that have someone responsible for them.

How a program starts

Usually with a leak. Most of our portfolio clients came to us reactive first — a make-safe, a dated photographic record, a written scope for what comes next — and the program grew out of not wanting to do that again. The other way in is a condition report across the portfolio, which sets the baseline and the first year’s budget — or, for the roof that has leaked three times and been fixed twice, a water-test leak investigation that finds the cause before anyone pays for a third repair.

Either way, the work is done by licensed roofers who quote and complete this work every week, on live and occupied sites, with site-specific WHS plans and Safe Work Method Statements, prequalified on Cm3, LinkSafe and Rapid Global. Trusted by the University of Sydney, Sydney Catholic Schools and the Catholic Archdiocese of Sydney.
