WHANGANUI'S REROOFING SPECIALISTS

Allen Roofing provides reroofing across Whanganui, and it's the bulk of what we do. The city has a lot of older homes, from character villas in Gonville and St Johns Hill to 70s and 80s houses in Aramoho and Springvale, and plenty are still wearing their original roof. Rusting corrugated iron, decramastic tiles losing their chip, cracked concrete tiles. Salt spray at Castlecliff and the westerlies off the Tasman speed it all up. Sooner or later, patching stops working and the roof needs replacing.

COMMON REROOFING PROBLEMS IN WHANGANUI

Most people call us after years of patching. One leak gets fixed, then another appears somewhere else. Nails pop, laps rust through, and water tracks along the framing before it shows on the ceiling, so by the time you see a stain the damage is already spreading into the timber and insulation. Decramastic and concrete tile roofs bring their own headaches, with brittle tiles and crumbling ridge mortar letting water in.

Whanganui weather makes it worse. Coastal homes in Castlecliff and Kai Iwi cop salt spray that eats fixings, and exposed spots on Durie Hill and Bastia Hill take the full force of the wind. A rushed reroof with reused flashings or the wrong fixings for the coast can leave you back where you started within a few years.

HOW ALLEN ROOFING GETS REROOFING RIGHT

Allen Roofing has served Whanganui since 2004. Gary Allen did his apprenticeship here and is hands-on with every reroof. We strip the old roof, replace any rotten timber, lay new underlay and fit new longrun Colorsteel with custom-folded flashings for every ridge, barge and chimney. As a Colorsteel Certified Partner, we'll help you pick a colour to suit your spot, including coastal options. You'll get straight advice and a clear quote upfront, and if we find rotten timber once the old roof is off, we'll show you before we fix it. Your home stays weathertight throughout, and we leave the site tidy.

We reroof homes across Castlecliff, Gonville, Aramoho, St Johns Hill, Springvale, Durie Hill, Whanganui East, Bastia Hill and out to Fordell and Marybank.

“Gary and his team removed and replaced a very tired, weathered roof on my property. The new Coloursteel roof looks amazing. Gary was fabulous to deal with. As the job progressed, the communication was timely and he went the extra mile during the installation. The house being aged had some unforeseen issues which we uncovered once the original roofing was removed. Gary updated me with his plan to rectify, and simply got on with it! His experience and skills sets him apart! I am thrilled with the completed job and highly recommend Gary and his team. Outstanding workmanship and outstanding effort!”

“Awesome team, great communication and good price. They went over and above for us especially by insulating the roof over a room that has no roof cavity. I've been recommending Allen Roofing to anyone who mentions roof work or repairs.”
