St Albans Roofing & Weather Profile

What We See in St Albans

Homes without adequate roof ventilation show condensation on the underside of the roof sarking in winter — moisture from the living space migrates into the ceiling cavity and condenses on the cold sarking surface, promoting mould growth and wetting the insulation.

Why It Happens

Condensation in roof spaces occurs when moisture-laden air from the living area enters the ceiling cavity and contacts a surface below its dew point. The dew point in Melbourne winters is regularly above the temperature of uninsulated roof sarking. Ventilation dilutes moisture concentration and reduces condensation frequency.

How We Fix It

On tiled roofs, we remove the tile course at the installation location, cut the penetration with a hole saw, bed the flashing in a compatible flexible mastic, seat the turbine neck in the flashing collar, then replace the tile course over the flashing apron.

"Got three quotes. True Roof wasn't the cheapest but was clearly the most professional. 10-year warranty sealed the deal. 6 months later, not a single issue."
