Why Choose Us for Flashing Repair in Serpentine?

Cockatoos love damaging the rubber seals around plumbing vents up on Serpentine roofs. Once they strip those, water starts running straight in, and you've got a leak inside the roof cavity. We pull those damaged flashings off, replace the rubber seals with quality ones, and seal everything back down so the birds can't get under the edges. Valley flashings corrode fast here too because of the tannin stains running off the jarrah and marri trees. If you're seeing rust spots or gaps where two roof sections meet, that's water finding its way in during heavy rain. A flashing repair runs $300 to $600 depending on how many vents and valleys need work.

Cockatoo damage to plumbing vent flashings is one of Serpentine's signature problems. Birds strip rubber seals and pick at soft metal edges, turning a small gap into an active leak. Your vent flashings are the first line against water running down inside your walls. We replace damaged flashings with heavy-gauge materials and sometimes add bird guards to stop repeat damage on the same roof.

Local Serpentine Expertise

Serpentine's rural-residential character - 47km southeast of Perth CBD amid dense jarrah and marri forest - creates roofing challenges unique to Perth's southern hills fringe. Properties on 2-5 acre lots built from the 1980s through to the 2010s face heavy native canopy coverage, BAL-rated bushfire exposure, and persistent wildlife damage from possums, cockatoos, and nesting birds. At Roof Restorers Perth, we've restored roofs across Serpentine and the wider Shire of Serpentine-Jarrahdale with 15+ years of team experience, specialising in bushland property roofing where ember protection, leaf litter management, and wildlife-proofing are essential.

The result: Roofs that withstand the unique demands of semi-rural living - from bushfire compliance to possum-proof ridge capping - backed by a 15-year Dulux manufacturer warranty on materials.

Benefits of Flashing Repair for Serpentine 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 Serpentine

  1. 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. 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. 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. 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.

How often do possums or cockatoos damage vent flashings in Serpentine?

Almost every property we work on has some cockatoo or possum damage around vents. It's not if, it's when. We see it so regularly we include vent inspection in every job.

Will protective mesh stop cockatoos damaging my flashings?

It helps, but cockatoos are determined. We use heavier gauge flashings and sometimes small guards. Best solution is catching damage early and repairing before leaks form.

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.
