Don’t let a small roof leak turn into big problems. We provide fast, reliable roof leak repair across Watsonia and the Melbourne Northern Suburbs. Protect your home from water damage before it leads to costly repairs.
A roof leak is more than just an annoyance. It’s a sign of potential underlying damage that can quickly worsen, especially during heavy rain. Ignoring it puts your entire home at risk.
Water entering through a leak can rot timber structures, damage ceilings and walls, and lead to costly internal repairs.
A small leak today might cost hundreds to fix. Left unchecked, it can necessitate thousands of dollars in major roof and internal repairs.
Constant moisture from a leak creates a breeding ground for toxic mould in your roof space and walls, impacting air quality and health.
Addressing roof leaks promptly prevents extensive water damage, avoiding expensive structural repairs and mould remediation down the track.
Stopping leaks eliminates damp conditions that lead to mould growth, ensuring healthier indoor air quality for your home.

“True Roof fixed a persistent leak near my chimney in Watsonia. They were fast, professional, and the repair has held up perfectly through heavy rain. Highly recommend them.”
“Had a leak in the roof valley causing water stains on the ceiling in Bundoora. True Roof identified the issue quickly and fixed it right the first time. Great service.”
“Prompt response to my leaking roof issue in Greensborough. The team was polite and efficient. It’s such a relief to have a dry roof again before winter hits.”
We guarantee that any roof leak we repair will remain watertight in that specific area for up to 24 months, provided no new damage or unrelated surrounding deterioration occurs.
Why there’s no “lifetime warranty” on spot leak repair:
Roof leaks often stem from wider issues like cracked bedding, deteriorated tiles, or worn-out valleys. While we can spot repair a leak reliably, permanent protection usually means a full restoration, not just a quick fix.
But here’s our promise: If that same leak comes back within 24 months – we’ll return and fix it free of charge.
Want longer-lasting peace of mind? Ask us about our full restoration or valley replacement options – those come with 7–10+ year guarantees and give your roof a fresh start.
Signs include water stains on ceilings or walls, dripping water during rain, damp spots in the attic or roof space, mould or mildew growth, and missing or damaged roof tiles or flashing.
Common causes include damaged or missing roof tiles, cracked or deteriorated flashing around chimneys, vents, or skylights, worn roof valleys where two roof planes meet, damaged roof membranes on flat roofs, and clogged gutters causing water backup.
While tempting, DIY roof repair is dangerous and often ineffective. Untrained repairs can miss the true source of the leak or even cause further damage. Professional leak detection and repair ensure a lasting solution and safety.
The cost varies depending on the complexity and location of the leak, the extent of damage, and the type of roofing material. Simple spot repairs might start from $299 AUD, but more complex issues or underlying damage will cost more. A professional inspection provides an accurate quote.
Insurance coverage depends on your policy and the cause of the leak. Policies often cover sudden damage (like a storm). However, damage due to lack of maintenance is typically not covered. We recommend contacting your insurance company to confirm your coverage.
We understand the urgency of a leaking roof. We aim to provide prompt service for leak detection and repair in the Watsonia and surrounding Northern Suburbs area. Contact us, and we’ll schedule your inspection as soon as possible.
