• Day 1: High-pressure cleaning and drying
• Day 2: Repairs and repointing
• Days 3-4: First coat of membrane/paint
• Days 5-6: Second coat application
• Day 7: Final inspection and touch-ups

Larger roofs or those requiring extensive repairs may take 8-10 days. Weather can affect timing—we only work in suitable conditions to ensure optimal results. We'll provide a specific timeline during your free inspection based on your roof's size and condition.

Question 12

How quickly can you start work?

Accepted Answer

For standard roofing projects, we can typically schedule work within 1-2 weeks of quote acceptance, depending on our current workload and weather conditions. For urgent repairs or urgent situations, we can often attend the same day or within 24-48 hours.

Our scheduling process:

• Free inspection scheduled within 2-3 days of initial contact
• Quote provided immediately after inspection
• Work scheduled based on your availability and our schedule
• Weather-dependent work only performed in suitable conditions

During peak seasons (spring/summer), scheduling may take slightly longer. We always aim to accommodate your timeframe while maintaining our quality standards.

Question 13

Do you work in the rain?

Accepted Answer

For urgent situations, we can perform temporary repairs in light rain to stop water ingress and prevent further damage. However, permanent roofing work requires dry conditions for proper adhesion of:

• Sealants and pointing compounds
• Roof membranes and primers
• Roof paints and coatings

We monitor weather forecasts carefully and will only schedule permanent work when conditions guarantee quality, lasting results. If weather interrupts scheduled work, we'll reschedule at no inconvenience to you. Your roof's long-term performance is more important than rushing work in unsuitable conditions.

Question 17

Do roofing jobs require council approval in Sydney?

Accepted Answer

Most minor roof repairs and maintenance do not require council approval as they're considered standard maintenance. However, council approval may be needed for:

• Major structural modifications
• Roof extensions or additions
• Changing roof type or pitch
• Heritage-listed properties
• Some conservation areas

Roof restoration (cleaning, repairs, repointing, painting) typically doesn't require approval as it maintains the existing roof structure. If you're unsure, we can advise whether your specific work requires council approval. Different Sydney councils have varying requirements.

Question 18

Is roof work safe?

Accepted Answer

Roof work involves working at heights and carries inherent risks. That's why it's crucial to use professional roofers like I Care Roofing who:

• Have 30+ years roofing experience
• Use proper safety equipment (harnesses, scaffolding, edge protection)
• Carry full insurance coverage
• Follow SafeWork NSW regulations
• Understand Sydney's diverse roof types
• Have proper training and equipment

DIY roofing is extremely dangerous and not recommended. Falls from roofs are a leading cause of serious injuries and fatalities in the construction industry. Professional roofers have the expertise, equipment, and insurance to complete work safely.

Question 19

What safety precautions do you take?

Accepted Answer

I Care Roofing takes safety extremely seriously. Our safety measures include:

• Comprehensive site risk assessments before starting work
• Proper safety equipment (harnesses, fall protection, scaffolding)
• Ground-level protection (barriers, signage)
• Protection of your property and landscaping
• Electrical safety protocols near powerlines
• Proper handling and disposal of materials
• Full insurance coverage (public liability and workers comp)
• Regular safety training for all staff
• Compliance with all SafeWork NSW regulations

We've maintained an excellent safety record over 30 years by making safety our top priority on every job.

Question 20

What products do you use?

Accepted Answer

I Care Roofing uses only premium Australian-made roofing products designed for Sydney's harsh climate:

• Premium roof paints with UV protection
• Flexible pointing compounds for expansion/contraction
• Quality roof membranes and primers
• Australian-made tiles and flashing materials
• Weather-resistant sealants

We source products from leading Australian manufacturers with proven performance in Sydney conditions. All products come with manufacturer warranties (typically 10-15 years). We'll discuss product options and recommendations during your free inspection based on your specific roof type and requirements.

Question 21

Can you match my existing roof tiles?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in most cases we can match existing tiles for seamless repairs. We:

• Have relationships with all major tile suppliers across Sydney
• Can source terracotta, concrete, and specialty tiles
• Can locate reclaimed tiles for discontinued products
• Offer close colour/style alternatives when exact matches unavailable

For discontinued tiles, we may recommend replacing an entire visible roof section with new matching tiles if close alternatives aren't satisfactory. During your free inspection, we'll assess your tile type and advise on matching options. Most common tiles can be matched exactly.
