Storm Damage Roof Repair Sydney — 24/7 Tarping and Insurance-Ready Reports

East Coast Lows now deliver 90-130km/h sustained gusts and 80-120mm of rain in 24 hours across most of the Sydney basin, the Central Coast and Newcastle. Tile roofs lose ridge caps and broken tiles, Colorbond sheets lift at the ridge, valleys overwhelm, downpipes choke on debris and water enters at any compromised junction. Once water is inside the ceiling cavity the damage compounds - sagging plasterboard, ruined insulation, blown ceiling roses and the risk of partial ceiling collapse onto the room below.

Our 24/7 emergency response priority is make-safe: a heavy-gauge tarp pinned over the breach with timber battens and roofing nails (not bricks or duct tape) so the roof is watertight before nightfall, gutters cleared so secondary flow doesn't worsen the cavity damage, and any active interior leaks captured with bunded containment. Typical metro on-site time is 60-90 minutes from call.

Insurance documentation pack delivered the same day: dated photographs of every damaged element from the ground, the eaves and the ridge; drone roof imagery where access is unsafe; a written scope of works detailing each repair line; market-rate quote on Tradetek letterhead with ABN, licence number and policy schedule; and a cause statement linking the damage to the specific storm event (date, BOM bulletin reference). This is the package that approval assessors at IAG, Suncorp, QBE, Allianz and Youi accept without on-site re-inspection in most cases.

Permanent repairs follow once your insurer authorises the claim - we coordinate the assessor visit, hold the temporary tarp in place at no extra cost, and complete the works to the original profile and colour where possible. For total ridge re-bed and repoint, valley iron replacement, full roof recoat or sheet replacement we handle the entire reinstatement under one contract.

All height work is carried out with SafeWork NSW-compliant fall arrest systems, harnesses and edge protection. Tradetek is fully licensed and insured for storm damage work, including $20m public liability and structural roofing work cover - the paperwork your insurer's risk team specifically asks for.
