Concrete tile roof repairs in Auckland

Concrete tile roofs are on homes all over Auckland. They're tough, but after a few decades the tiles get brittle, the ridge mortar breaks down and moss moves in. We keep them watertight.

Common problems on concrete tile roofs

  • Ridge and hip mortar breaking down, leaving loose caps and gaps
  • Cracked tiles from foot traffic, branches or age
  • Porous, weathered tiles that soak up water as the surface wears
  • Moss and lichen growing on the rougher, older surface
  • Blocked valleys sending water under the tiles in heavy rain

What we do

Most concrete tile roofs don't need replacing. They need the right repairs in the right places: cracked tiles swapped out, ridges rebedded or repointed, valleys cleared and moss treated. We'll show you photos of what's needed and what isn't.

Matching concrete tiles

Concrete tiles come in many profiles and colours, and some older ones are no longer made. We match as closely as we can, using reclaimed tiles where needed. If a repair is in a very visible spot, we can move an original tile from somewhere less visible and put the replacement out of sight.

Thinking about a roof coating? We don't sell roof painting. If someone tells you your concrete roof needs a full coating to stop leaks, get the leak properly diagnosed first. Coatings don't fix cracked tiles or failed ridges.

FAQ

Common questions

How long do concrete roof tiles last?

A long time, if they're maintained. The tiles usually outlast the ridge mortar and fixings, which is why repairs are often all that's needed.

Can you walk on a concrete tile roof without breaking tiles?

Yes, if you know where to step. Tiles are strongest where they overlap and are supported by battens. That's how we avoid cracking tiles while we work.

Do you do re-roofs?

No. We specialise in repairs and maintenance. If your roof genuinely needs replacing, we'll tell you straight and explain why.

Do you work on metal, Decramastic or new roofs?

No. We specialise in concrete and terracotta tile roofs only, so we don't take on metal roofs, Decramastic or other pressed-metal tile roofs, new roofs, flashing replacement or asbestos roofs. If that's what you need, we're happy to point you in the right direction.
