Roof Repairs Wellington — Same-Day Service
Water coming through the ceiling? A flashing gone in the last storm? Southern’s roofing team gets to most Wellington addresses the same day — and every repair is backed by our promise: Your Roof Repaired On Time, or It’s Free.
We’ve been doing this since 1982. 40+ years and roughly 29,000 jobs across Wellington, the Hutt Valley, Porirua and the Kapiti Coast.
Call 0800 484 353 (0800 HUGE LEAK) — 24/7, every day.
Every Roof Type, Every Profile
We repair every roof type common in Wellington — no “sorry, we don’t touch tile” run-around.
- Long-run steel — corrugate, trapezoidal, 5-rib, rib-tray (Colorsteel and galvanised)
- Concrete and terracotta tile — crack, slip and ridge-line repairs
- Diamond Dek and tray roofing
- Butynol — patch repairs and seam re-welds
- Zinc, copper and lead
- Asphalt and timber shingle
Rusty nails get replaced with roofing screws. Surface rust gets treated and re-coated. Broken tiles get swapped with matching stock. No shortcuts, no “that’ll do”.
Finding the Leak — Not Just Patching the Stain
Where you see water coming in inside isn’t where it’s getting in on the outside. Water runs along purlins, down rafters, and sideways under flashings before it finally drips onto your ceiling.
Our leak investigation process:
- Safety inspection and access-method check
- Visual roof inspection — flashings, penetrations, fastener lines
- Targeted water testing to reproduce the leak
- Remove and repair damaged parts
- Replace nails with roofing screws, treat rust
- Written report with photos
See roof leak specialists for more detail.
Repair, Re-Roof or Replace?
Once a roof needs regular patching, throwing good money at it usually isn’t the right call. We give you the honest answer before we quote.
- Repair — isolated failure, rest of the roof has plenty of life left
- Re-roof over existing — structure is sound, profile change wanted, tight budget
- Full replacement — widespread rust, failed underlay, or changing pitch/profile
Re-roofing is often the Goldilocks option: cheaper than full replacement, longer-lasting than another round of patching. We’ll tell you which applies.
All repair work is guaranteed to last 15+ years to NZ Building Code.
Spouting, Flashings, Chimneys & More
The roof itself is rarely the only thing that needs attention. While we’re up there we also handle:
- Spouting and guttering — Colorsteel quad, OG, half-round, box gutter
- Gutter cleaning — annual or pre-winter
- Fascia and barge board replacement
- Flashings — valley, apron, step, chimney
- Chimney removal and make-good
- Carport and garage roofing
- Moss treatment on tile and shingle
Bundle maintenance jobs together — one scaffold hire, one site visit, one bill.
High and Hard-to-Access Roofs
A lot of Wellington roofs sit above 25 degrees pitch, on hillside sites, or out of reach of a standard scaffold truck. We have three access options in rotation:
- SARNZ-compliant scaffolding — full re-roofs and long jobs
- Rope access — quick repairs on steep or awkward roofs, much cheaper than scaffolding for half-day work
- Cherry-picker hire — chimney and single-side access
Edge protection, fall-arrest harnesses and working-at-heights supervision come standard on every job.
Fixed-Price Quotes, Guaranteed Workmanship
Before we start, you get a price in writing. That price is the price — no “we found another problem” halfway through the job.
- Master Plumbers Guarantee — your deposit and workmanship covered
- Certifying Plumber and Gasfitter on staff — we self-certify our work
- Public liability insurance and SARNZ scaffold compliance
- Your Job On Time, or It’s Free — no-show, no charge
- SuperGold discount — mention when you book
