Leak Detection and Roof Repairs

Leak detection and roof repair specialists

Have you had multiple failed attempts to resolve roof problems?

You’ve come to the right place.

At Sky Dog Roofing, we specialize in hard-to-find leaks and difficult roof problems.

Over the years we have developed our own solution based approach to leak detection and roof repairs.

After years of inspecting thousands of leaking roofs–often with multiple failed repair attempts–we have learned that even experienced and skilled roofers can sometimes miss the boat when it comes to correct diagnosis.

At Sky Dog, we start by asking a couple of very simple questions:

1. Were the roof materials, design and installation correct and adequate in the first place?
   If so, how and why did it break down or prematurely fail?
2. If the materials, design or installation were not correct and adequate, what should have been done in the first place?

Seems too simple, however starting off in the right direction is crucial to avoiding strange and unusual new solutions that are destined for failure.

We are not interested in patch work, band aids or short term fixes.

We are interested in solutions that will last!

Flashing work

Flashings are essential roof components that prevent water ingress at critical points where different roofing sections meet, such as around chimneys, vents, and roof joins.

At Sky Dog Roofing, we specialize in designing and installing all types of roof flashings, tailored to address the unique needs of your roof.

We specialize in a wide variety of flashing types, including Valley and Box Gutter Flashings, Transition Flashings, Change of Roof or Pitch Flashings, Custom Flashings, Tile Roof Flashings (both Lead and Lead-Free), and Brick Step Flashings for chimneys and wall joins.

And when it comes to flashings, we love a good challenge!

At Sky Dog Roofing we specialize in the installation and replacement of gutters and downpipes for all roof types and materials, including Colorbond, Zincalume, Copper and PVC.

We also provide tailored solutions to address water capacity issues when your gutters or roof systems cannot handle the required volume of water.

Whether you’re dealing with a leak or need an assessment, our team will determine if your skylight needs repair, replacement, or simply adjustments.

We design and install our own custom skylight flashings, to fit any size or type of Skylight, ensuring a secure, watertight seal.

Chimney repair and removal specialists

At Sky Dog Roofing, we provide expert chimney repairs, including leak repairs, chimney flashings, waterproofing, and chimney capping.

We also specialize in restoration, offering re-pointing, mortar work, and re-bedding to preserve your old chimney.

If your chimney is no longer needed or wanted, we can safely remove chimneys and roof over the areas as if the chimney never existed. This can be a good option to prevent the future maintenance required of a chimney.

Roof ventilation

At Sky Dog Roofing, we specialize in diagnosing and solving roof ventilation issues such as heat trapment, cold homes, poor airflow and condensation.

We can assess and recommend tailored solutions, including the use of whirlybirds, insulation, or other systems to improve ventilation.

At the end of the day our aim is to help you regulate temperature, reduce moisture, and protect your home, creating a healthier and more energy-efficient living environment.

Tile roof repair specialists

At Sky Dog Roofing, we bring extensive experience and expertise in both tile and metal roofing.

Specializing in leak detection and resolution, we handle all aspects of tile roofing, including ridge cap re-pointing, full re-beds, tile flashing, tile replacement, and sarking to name just a few of the more common work we do.

With many years of identifying issues in tile roofs and implement long-lasting solutions, we make sure your tile roof remains secure, watertight, and built to stand the test of time.

Tile roof pressure cleaning

Did you know that roof pressure cleaning not only restores the appearance of your roof by removing dirt, moss, and algae, but it also helps extend its lifespan?

Over time, lichen and other growths can eat away at the protective coating on tiles, causing them to degrade and break down faster.

We recommend regular roof pressure cleaning, along with basic maintenance and repairs, to keep your roof in top condition and ensure it lasts as long as possible.
