One cracked tile is enough to let water into the roof space. Urban Gutters’ crew replace or seal broken terracotta and concrete tiles across Canberra and the ACT, with before-and-after photos sent to your phone.
Terracotta and concrete tiles are popular because they insulate well and last for decades. They are also brittle. A falling branch, a hailstone or a heavy-footed tradesperson is enough to crack one.
Canberra adds weather extremes. Summer thunderstorms can bring hail, gums can drop limbs onto the roof, and older terracotta tiles go through repeated frost on winter mornings, which is hard on tiles that already have a fine crack.
A single crack lets water into the roof space, and from there into the ceiling. It also gives possums and rats a way in.
is all it takes for water to get into the roof space. Fixing it early costs far less than repairing a stained or collapsed ceiling.
Brown rings or damp patches on the ceiling are often water coming through a cracked or slipped tile above
If you can see daylight from inside the roof space, a tile is cracked, broken or out of place.
From the ground, a tile sitting higher, lower or crooked against its neighbours has slipped or broken.
Possums or rats in the roof space often got in through a gap left by a broken tile.
We find the cracked, broken or slipped tiles and give you a fixed, no-obligation quote before any work starts.
Our crew sets up with harnesses and helmets and walks the roof carefully, so we try our best not to affect the tiles around the repair.
If you have spare matching tiles, we replace the broken ones. If not, we repair the crack with a top-quality industrial roof sealant.

Rated 5 stars by homeowners across Sydney and Canberra
Tile repairs, gutter cleaning and tree trimming in the same visit, so the branch that cracked the tile is dealt with too.
Closing the crack stops water reaching the insulation, timbers and ceiling.
Water through a broken tile ends up as stains, mould and, at worst, a sagging ceiling.
A sealed roof keeps possums and rats out of the roof space.
Replacing a broken tile restores the appearance of the roof and the house.
After every major storm or hail event, and after any trade has worked on the roof. Before summer storm season is the best time for a general check.
If you already have a ceiling stain or can see daylight in the roof space, book the repair now. Every rain makes the damage underneath worse.
Pro tip: Keep a few spare tiles from any roof work. Matching tiles make for the best repair. Book it with a gutter clean and we will check every tile while we are up there.
If a tree cracked the tile, it will do it again. We trim branches back from the roofline in the same visit.
