Leak Risk Profile
Gisborne Roofing & Weather Profile
What We See in Gisborne
Skylight flashings on 1980s and 1990s homes are a reliable source of leak calls. The lead or aluminium apron flashing around a skylight is subject to thermal movement in both planes simultaneously — longitudinal and lateral — and eventually fails at the corners.
Why It Happens
Silicone sealants used as the primary waterproofing on roof penetrations or flashings have a service life of 10 to 15 years before hardening and cracking under UV. On any older home, every silicone seal on the roof should be treated as a potential current or imminent failure point.
How We Fix It
Valley iron replacement is done in full — we don't patch corroded valley iron. A patch repair extends the life of a failed section by months, not years, and the mobilisation cost of a callback is disproportionate to the saving from not doing the job completely.
