Frequently Asked
Questions

Do you need to access my home interior for the job?

Waikato Roofers does not need to go inside your home. We only need access to electricity, usually by running an extension cord through a window.

Can Waikato Roofers do a re-roof during winter?

Yes, Waikato Roofers can replace your roof any time of year. In winter, there might be some delays. This is to make sure the weather is good and work is done only when it’s dry.

How long will it take to complete a re-roof?

A re-roof by Waikato Roofers usually takes 3-7 days. This depends on the roof’s size and complexity. We’ll give you an estimate when you book with us.

How early should I schedule a new roof installation?

We usually schedule about one month ahead of time. Booking early with Waikato Roofers helps plan for the installation timeline and allows for weather-related changes.

What’s the best longrun roofing type?

The ideal longrun roofing for your property hinges on its architecture, roof angle, and placement. For customised guidance and warranty info, connect with Waikato Roofers’s sales team.

Can Waikato Roofers replace damaged timber when re-roofing?

Yes, we replace any rotten wood when re-roofing. Our team also looks into structural problems and can work with a builder if needed.

Is Adding Insulation an Option When Replacing the Roof?

Adding insulation is standard for us during roof replacement. It’s a great time to make this update.

Does Waikato Roofers include gutter cleaning in re-roofing service?

We clean gutters for free as part of the re-roofing service.

Is a permit required for re-roofing?

Usually, permits are not needed for ‘like-for-like’ re-roofing. However, we suggest checking with your local council for any specific rules.

Can I Change from Metal or Concrete Tiles to Longrun Roofing?

Our team at Waikato Roofers has extensive experience converting tile roofs to longrun. We’ve carried out many successful transitions like these.
