Complete Roof Restoration and Waterproofing Project

This project involved a comprehensive roof repair and maintenance programme to restore the structural integrity, weatherproofing, and appearance of a residential property. 7:24 Roofing carried out extensive structural timber repairs, roof maintenance, waterproofing, gutter replacement, and a full roof restoration to provide the homeowner with a long-lasting roofing solution.

Structural Roof Repairs

During the company's inspection, several sections of the roof structure were found to have sagged due to aged and weakened timber members. To restore the roof to its correct profile, 7:24 Roofing carefully removed the affected roof coverings and carried out structural repairs by replacing damaged and weakened timber rafters and supporting members. The repaired roof structure was strengthened and realigned to ensure the roof remained stable and properly supported for years to come.

Tile Roof Maintenance

With the structural repairs completed, the roof received a full maintenance overhaul, including:
Replacement of cracked and broken roof tiles.
Re-securing loose roof tiles.
General maintenance to restore the roof's weather resistance.
Repairs to prevent future water ingress.
Inspection of all roof sections for hidden defects.
These repairs significantly improved the roof's performance while extending its lifespan.

Flat Roof Waterproofing

The property also included a flat roof section that had deteriorated over time. 7:24 Roofing removed the failed waterproofing system and installed a new 4mm torch-on waterproofing membrane using a gas-fused application.
This premium waterproofing system provides superior protection against standing water, UV exposure, and heavy rainfall, delivering a durable and long-lasting waterproof barrier.
Barge Board & Timber Replacement
Rotten timber components and deteriorated barge boards were removed and replaced with new materials, restoring both the structural integrity and the overall appearance of the roof edges. These repairs help protect the roof from moisture damage while improving the property's kerb appeal.
Seamless Aluminium Gutter Installation
To improve rainwater management, 7:24 Roofing supplied and installed a complete seamless aluminium gutter system, including:
Large-capacity seamless aluminium gutters.
New downpipes.
Heavy-duty brackets and fixings.
Correct falls to ensure efficient water drainage.
The seamless design minimises leaks while providing a clean, modern finish that complements the newly restored roof.

Complete Roof Recoating

Following completion of all structural and maintenance work, the entire tiled roof was professionally cleaned and recoated using premium roof coating products.
The roof coating provides:
Enhanced weather protection.
UV resistance.
Improved colour consistency.
Protection against moisture penetration.
A fresh, modern appearance that transforms the home.
The finished result not only improves the home's aesthetics but also helps extend the life of the roof.
