Expert flashings, downpipes and drainage that move water off your roof and away from your home.
In one of the wettest regions in New South Wales, good drainage is not optional.
When the Northern Rivers gets rain, it gets serious rain. Every litre that lands on your roof has to be collected, channelled and carried away from your home, and the system that does that job is your roof plumbing.
At Richmond River Roofing, we design, install and repair complete roof drainage systems. Flashings that seal every junction, gutters and box gutters sized for real local downpours, and downpipes that deliver water safely away from your foundations.
Poor roof plumbing is behind a huge share of the leaks, rust and structural damage we see. If water is overflowing, pooling or appearing where it should not, call us on 0488 575 707 and we will sort it properly.
Every component that manages water on and around your roof.
Flashings seal the joints where your roof meets walls, chimneys, skylights and vents. We fabricate and install flashings that keep these vulnerable points watertight.
Downpipes carry collected water to the ground and away from your home. We install correctly sized and positioned downpipes, in Colorbond steel or PVC, that handle peak flows without backing up.
Box gutters and valleys carry concentrated water flows and cause serious damage when they fail. We install and replace them with correctly sized, properly sealed metalwork.
Well-placed rainwater heads and overflow provisions protect your home when storms exceed normal capacity, directing excess water safely outside rather than into your building.
Water pooling on the roof, overflowing at one corner or cascading down a wall are all signs of a drainage design problem. We diagnose the cause and rework the system so it flows as it should.
The damage from poor drainage shows up everywhere except where it started.
Most persistent leaks trace back to failed flashings or overwhelmed drainage rather than the roof sheets themselves. Quality roof plumbing removes those failure points.
Downpipes that discharge in the wrong place erode gardens and can undermine footings over time. Correct drainage carries water clear of the structures that matter.
Pooling water is the fastest way to rust a metal roof. Properly graded drainage keeps water moving so your roof stays dry between rains.
Guttering and downpipes sized for Sydney suburbs are not always adequate for Northern Rivers rainfall. We size systems for the weather we actually get here.
From family homes to commercial buildings with complex box gutter systems.
Commercial roofs often carry large water volumes through internal box gutters where a failure means flooding inside the building. We bring the same precision to a shop or warehouse as we do to a family home.
Roof plumbing works hand in hand with the rest of your roof.
Servicing the coast, the plateau and the river.
