Older Tile Roofs: What Goes Wrong in Morley

About 84% of Morley homes are separate houses (ABS Census 2021), and many are established brick-and-tile homes. After decades of sun and rain, the usual problems are:

  • Cracked ridge capping mortar. The most common cause of winter leaks on older tile roofs.
  • Worn-out tile coatings. Concrete tiles go porous, fade and grow lichen.
  • Rusted valley irons where two roof sections meet.
  • Old, rusting gutters with leaking joints.
  • Asbestos-cement roof sheets or eaves on some older homes. They must not be cut, drilled or water-blasted, and removing more than 10 m² needs a licensed removalist (WorkSafe WA).

If the tiles themselves are sound, a restoration usually costs far less than a new roof. See roof restoration costs.

Hot Summers, Wet Winters

Morley sits inland, close to the Bureau of Meteorology’s Perth Airport station, which records:

  • About 29 days a year at 35°C or more, with summer maximums averaging about 32°C. Heat and UV crack mortar and wear out coatings.
  • About 753 mm of rain a year, with around 150 mm in each of June and July. That’s when cracked ridges and blocked gutters turn into ceiling stains.

Townhouses and Strata Roofs in Morley

About 16% of Morley homes are townhouses or semi-detached (ABS Census 2021), and the number is growing as older blocks are subdivided. Townhouse roofs often share box gutters, flashings and firewalls, so a leak can start next door. If you live in a strata property, check with your strata manager before booking work, because the roof may be common property.

Roofer or Roof Plumber in Morley?

  • Roofer: tiles, ridge capping, restorations and roof painting.
  • Roof plumber: gutters, downpipes, valley irons, flashings, box gutters and metal roofs.

On an older Morley tile roof, a leak is often a mix of both, such as cracked ridge pointing plus a rusted valley. We handle both.

Gutter Cleaning in Morley

Book a gutter clean for March to May, before the winter rain. Once a year suits most homes, and homes under big street or backyard trees need it every 3 to 6 months.

Usually cracked ridge capping mortar, a rusted valley iron or blocked gutters. All three get worse with age and show up when the heavy June and July rain arrives.

Restore it if the tiles are sound and only the coating and ridges are tired. Replace it if tiles are crumbling across the roof or the battens have failed.

Don’t cut, drill or water-blast it. Have it checked, and if it needs to come off, removal of more than 10 m² must be done by a licensed removalist.

Yes, but check with your strata manager first, because shared roofs and box gutters are often common property.
