Why Choose Us for Flashing Repair in Maylands?
Flashing is where water sneaks in. Around chimneys, valleys, and vents on Maylands roofs, flashing corrosion happens faster along the riverside streets where humidity stays high. Once water finds a gap, it travels into the wall cavity and causes damage you won't see until the staining spreads inside. Early flashing replacement saves money. Most of the older homes in Maylands have original metal flashings that have moved and cracked after decades of sun and moisture cycles. We restrip and reseal these around chimneys and ventilation, using materials that match the roof type and keep water where it belongs. It's one of those jobs that looks small but stops big problems.
Maylands' heritage bungalows often have original chimneys and ventilation cowls with aged flashing that corrodes faster due to riverside humidity. When we restore these homes, flashing reseal around chimneys is a critical step, failing flashings send water into walls and cavities. Peninsula Road properties particularly struggle with accelerated corrosion from constant moisture exposure.

Local Maylands Expertise
Maylands has transformed from a quiet inner suburb into one of Perth's trendiest neighbourhoods, where beautifully restored 1920s-1950s character bungalows sit alongside sleek modern infill townhouses. Located just 3km northeast of the CBD along a sweeping bend of the Swan River, Maylands' riverside position creates elevated humidity that accelerates moss growth and mortar deterioration on the suburb's many aging terracotta roofs. At Roof Restorers Perth, we've restored hundreds of roofs across Maylands, Bayswater, and Inglewood with 15+ years of team experience, specialising in the heritage terracotta tiles and character-home roofing that define this inner riverside suburb.
Benefits of Flashing Repair for Maylands Properties
Seals the most common leak point
Flashing is the metal that seals the joins where the roof meets a chimney, wall, valley or vent. It's where most tiled roofs leak, and on tile it's where we fix more leaks than anywhere else.
Repaired properly, not bodged
If the flashing's just lifted or the seal's perished, we strip it back and reseal it. If it's rusted or was never installed right, we patch and re-secure the join so it sheds water again. Either way it's done to last, not bodged with a tube of silicone.
Stops the leak at the source
Sealing the flashing fixes where the water's actually getting in, so the ceiling stain stops spreading. Flashing sits outside our leak warranty, so we'll tell you honestly what we can and can't stand behind before we start.
Fully insured
We carry $10M public liability and work safely across tile, metal and flat roofs throughout the Perth metro.
Our Flashing Repair Process in Maylands
- 1
Find the failed flashing
We inspect the chimneys, walls, valleys, vents and penetrations and identify which flashing has lifted, perished or rusted.
Why it matters: Flashing failures are easy to miss from the ground.
- 2
Strip the old seal
We remove the failed flashing or perished sealant back to a clean, sound surface.
Why it matters: New sealant won't bond over old, cracked material.
- 3
Reseal and re-secure
We reseal sound flashing and patch or re-secure it where it's lifted or rusted, lapped and fixed so water sheds away from the join.
Why it matters: Correctly lapped flashing sends water out, not in.
- 4
Check the surrounding roof
While we're at the join we check the nearby tiles, pointing and valleys, since flashing leaks often sit alongside other wear.
Why it matters: Where one thing's failed, the next is usually close.

My 1940s Maylands bungalow has water stains around the chimney. Could it be the flashing? ▾
Very likely. Original flashing on heritage homes deteriorates with age and riverside humidity speeds the process. We reseal or replace flashing around chimneys as part of restoration work. A close physical inspection helps us spot water penetration early before it damages the roof cavity.
Does flashing work need to match the roof material on heritage homes? ▾
Not always. We use copper or modern Colorbond to match the aesthetic while providing better durability than original lead or steel. Heritage-appropriate finishes are part of our character-home approach. It's both about looks and long-term weatherproofing.
How much does roof flashing repair cost in Perth? ▾
A reseal of sound flashing is a small job. Patching and re-securing rusted or badly installed flashing costs more, especially around a chimney. We find what's failed first, then give you a price before any work starts. Call 08 6388 4492.
Can you fix chimney flashing? ▾
Yes. Chimney flashing is one of the most common leak points on a roof. We reseal or patch the flashing around the chimney so water sheds away from it instead of tracking down inside.
My roof leaks where it meets a wall. Is that flashing? ▾
Almost certainly. The join where a roof meets a wall is sealed with flashing, and it's a classic leak spot when that flashing lifts or perishes. We reseal or patch it so the join sheds water properly again.
Do you replace valley flashing? ▾
Yes. Rusted-through valleys are a major leak source on older Perth roofs. We repair the valley iron where it's still serviceable, and there's a dedicated valley replacement service if the whole valley's gone.
Do you repair flashing on a metal roof? ▾
For metal and Colorbond roofs we specialise in cleaning and repainting rather than leak work - our leak repair and leak warranty cover tiled roofs. If you've got a leak on a metal roof we'll tell you straight rather than take the job on.
Is flashing work covered by your warranty? ▾
No. Our 12-month workmanship guarantee covers repointing, rebedding, tile replacement and leak repairs on tiled roofs. Flashing, flues, whirlybirds and other roof penetrations sit outside it, and so do metal roofs. We'll set out exactly what's covered before you commit.
Will silicone fix my flashing leak? ▾
A smear of silicone might hold for a few months, but it's not a repair. Failed flashing needs the old seal stripped and the join resealed or patched properly. That's what actually lasts.
