Roofing in Preston
Preston is dominated by postwar housing: weatherboard and brick veneer built through the fifties, sixties and seventies, with a good deal of more recent infill. Concrete tile is the default, and much of it is on its original pointing.
What we see here
The faults that come up most in Preston.
- Concrete tile roofs at fifty to seventy years with original bedding
- Leaks appearing at the junction where a later extension meets the original roof
- Cracked tiles from decades of aerial and air-conditioning installers walking them
- Colorbond conversions on homes where the tile is past restoring
- Rear extensions with low-pitch roofs that need the correct sheet profile
