Is Your Wellington Roof Ready for Anything? Common Problems & Expert Solutions from Kustom Roofing

Wellington weather. We love it, we hate it, but we all know it’s a force to be reckoned with. From howling gales to torrential downpours, our roofs take a beating. That’s why understanding common roofing problems and having a reliable team like Kustom Roofing on your side is essential for protecting your home and investment.

At Kustom Roofing, we’ve seen it all over our 15+ years serving the Wellington region. We’re not just roofers; we’re your neighbours, dedicated to providing quality craftsmanship and customer-focused service. Let’s explore some of the most frequent roofing issues and how we can help solve them.

The Wellington Roof Challenge: Common Problems We See

1. Leaky Roofs

This is the top complaint and often the most urgent. Wellington’s persistent rain finds any weakness – cracked shingles, failing flashing, or age-related wear and tear. Our roof leak detection services can quickly identify and fix leaks before they cause further damage.

2. Damaged or Missing Shingles/Tiles

Those infamous Wellington winds don’t just rearrange outdoor furniture; they can rip off shingles, leaving your roof vulnerable to leaks and structural damage.

3. Clogged Gutters

Leaves, debris, and even the occasional rogue tennis ball can clog gutters, leading to water overflow and potential damage to your roof, fascia, and foundation.

4. Moss and Algae Growth

Wellington’s damp climate is a breeding ground for moss and algae, which can trap moisture and degrade roofing materials over time.

5. Corrosion on Metal Roofs

Salt air and constant moisture can accelerate corrosion on metal roofs, leading to leaks and structural issues if not treated promptly.
