The Roofing Client
Located South of Melbourne, in Prahran opposite the most spectacular beer garden known to man “the College Lawn” we find another ACR Roofing roof replacement project – this time for Ace Body Corporate.
This particular roof replacement consists of an entire metal roof replacement to a block of flats. With many tenants within the building, we ensure to keep all updated of our scope of Melbourne roofing works. It takes careful planning and coordination skills, however our roofers in Melbourne always get the job done!
We excel in these particular roofing projects. You don’t need to be a roofing contractor to see from the before photos, the original roof is in terrible condition! As experts however, ACR Roofing identify the more serious and not so obvious problems. More noteworthy, we identify the solution. In this case, an entire roof replacement.
Serious corrosion covers the entire original roof, and in some sections the rust has eaten away at the metal roof! Leading to exposing the clips which hold the roof down, and sagging the structure. Previous trades have attempted to repair the roof but this is no longer an option! Our Melbourne roofers propose an entire roof replacement, and begin the works.
The Roof Replacement Project
Due to the three story height of the building, we require a crane to load all materials onto the roof. Furthermore, we install safety rail and require an access tower built to access the roof each day. Working in sections each day, we remove the metal roof and install additional timber. As the existing structure sags, we install additional timber in order to eliminate the sags and dips, and ensure the pitch is compliant. We install new 60mm insulation blanket, before laying the new roof. BlueScope Colorbond was installed. For the roof, heavier grade materials, and all in the colour Surfmist, as per the clients choice.
Despite facing days of inclement weather, our roof replacements works are complete within the time frame provided to our client. The entire roof replacement project ran smoothly, and with no disruption to the tenants below. Well done to our Melbourne roofers! Lets go and grab a Parma and a well deserved Pot!
