A post-war suburb on the south-east, where homes near the escarpment take the full force of the weather.

Rangeville roofs are handed to one QBCC-licensed roofer who covers the suburb.

Exposed to the weather

Rangeville is on Toowoomba’s south-east side. Most of its housing was built after the war and through to the 1990s, and parts of it sit up near the escarpment, home to the heritage-listed Picnic Point. That position brings views, and it brings weather: wind across the edge of the Range, storms rolling in, and full sun.

What wind does to a roof

Wind finds the weak points first. On tile roofs that means ridge caps with failed pointing or bedding, which can lift and let water in. On metal roofs it means screws that have loosened over time and sheets that start to lift at the edges. Regular checks, and fixing those early, prevent bigger damage in the next gale. See ridge capping repointing and metal roof restoration.

Storm season

Storms that come up over the escarpment can carry hail. After one, a close inspection is the only way to find cracked tiles or dented sheets that are not visible from the ground. See hail damage roof repairs.

Coatings and colour

On exposed roofs, coatings take more sun and weather, so the quality of preparation and the coating system matter even more.

Local questions

What does it cost to book a roof check through here?

Nothing. Booking through this service is free. The roofer quotes the work, and you can say no to the quote.

Should I call my insurer or a roofer first after hail?

Usually your insurer, so you know their process. Some arrange their own assessors and repairers. Meanwhile, a roofer can fit temporary protection if water is getting in.
