FAQs

Question 1

How long does it take roofers to replace a roof?

Accepted Answer

Roof installation time in New Zealand is affected by several factors. For a standard residential property, the work could take a week. However, installation is not possible during bad weather. Additionally, if specific issues need to be addressed or a challenging installation method is used, it could take longer. Larger buildings will require significantly more time.

Question 2

What time can roofers start working?

Accepted Answer

Most areas allow for construction work to start at 7.30 am. However, roofers can arrive on-site from 6.30 am to prepare for work. These rules apply to residential areas from Monday to Friday. Work is also allowed on Saturdays, although most councils don’t permit construction noise on Sundays.

Question 3

Do roofers install chimney caps?

Accepted Answer

You can ask a roofer to install a chimney cap. Many professionals are experienced in other aspects of the roofline, which include the chimney and the gutters. However, if you’re dealing with leaks or a more complex problem, it’s best to seek out a company that has experience and expertise in this area.

Question 4

Do roofers need scaffolding?

Accepted Answer

Roofers almost always need scaffolding. For safe and proper access to the work area, scaffolding is a good option. It means that they can finish a job quickly and efficiently, even if it takes some time to construct and remove.
