Rapid Response
Emergency Roof Repairs

As soon as we arrive on site for an emergency, we get to work very fast. We have the ability to install a tarp within a range of 15 minutes to 4 hours. It really depends on how big the area is that needs covering. Sometimes, the leak is from a small part of the roof, like the corner. Other times, it could be a big area, like an entire garage.

Putting the tarp is a delicate job. We have to make sure the tarp doesn't cause more damage. You see, a tarp acts like a sail on a boat. When the wind blows, it can catch the tarp and pull on it really hard. If it's not secured properly, this damages whatever the tarp is tied to – like parts of your roof. So, our roofers are trained to install it exactly right to keep your home safe and dry until we do the full repair.

HolyMess Repairs ensures most emergency roof leak repairs are completed on the same day to prevent further damage to your property. For a sudden roof leak, usually it takes a few hours to fix it. If the leak is small, we fix it super quick, like in about 1-2 hours. But if it's a big one or if there's a lot of damage, it could take a bit longer, maybe a whole day.

First, we find the source of the leak with the help of modern technology. Then, we get straight to fixing it using the best Australian standard materials. Our roofers keep you updated every step of the way, so you're never left wondering what's going on.

When inspecting roofs for hidden flaws, our company uses state of the art modern equipment.

1. Thermal Imaging Camera: This is a cool tool that helps us see where heat is escaping from your roof. It shows different temperatures in different colors. So, if there's a leak, it'll show up on the camera because the temperature will be different in that spot. It's like having x-ray vision for heat!

2. Dye Method: This method is quite clever. We sprinkle a special dye powder on your roof and then pour water over it. When we think we know where the leak is, we go underneath and use a small camera to look at it. The camera lets us see where the dye has traveled with the water. We follow a colorful trail that leads us right to the source of the leak.

3. Coil/Snake Camera: Imagine a tiny camera on the end of a long, flexible wire. That's our coil camera. If we need to, we make a small hole in your wall and slide this camera through. It lets us see inside the wall without having to make a big opening.

Using these and many other latest techniques, our leak detection experts find even the sneakiest leaks and fix them before they become big problems!

Of course, we do. Imagine your roof gets damaged in a big storm and needs fixing fast. A lot of companies charge a lot more for quick help, but not us. We keep our emergency prices close to normal prices. The slight increase you might see only reflects the immediate response by our roofers. We always tell you the cost before repairing your roof.

You know exactly what you're paying for, and there are no surprises. Our goal is to be a company you can trust, making sure you feel taken care of, even when things are tough. So, you can count on us to be as fair with our emergency pricing as we are on a calm, sunny day.

When there's an emergency, like a big storm or even a minor earthquake, HolyMess team is ready to serve our beloved Australian homeowners. Here's how we handle lots of emergency calls at the same time.

1. Weather Reports: Every day, we check the weather. This helps us prepare for sudden weather conditions and lots of emergency calls.

2. Ready Roofers: Our licensed roofers are always on alert, especially when the weather changes fast. They keep their trucks, called “utes”, packed with all the materials they need, like tarps, so they can head out fast.

3. Emergency Calls: Our roofers are prepared to answer emergency calls quickly. They are available more than usual to do all the work, as the fire department does in an emergency. This is really important when there's unexpected weather. Like when we had minor earthquakes in Melbourne and had to fix lots of roofs fast because it was going to rain for the next few days.

4. In-Office Team: Our office staff are super important too. They make sure we can answer every call that comes in, no matter how many there are.

5. Night Work: Our vehicles have special lights and generators. So if it's dark or there's no electricity in your house, we can still work and repair your roof.

6. Big Network: We have a really big team of emergency roofers in Melbourne, Canberra, and New South Wales. This means we can help lots of people at once. And if we ever are in a situation where we can’t, our office team will work super hard all night to find someone who can help you.

Absolutely, we can handle big roofing emergencies for commercial buildings when lots of tenants are affected. We know how important it is to act fast because there's a lot at stake - like millions of dollars worth of products, important work time, and crucial equipment. Take hospitals, for example, where people's lives depend on the building being safe and dry.

We're ready to respond with everything we've got. It's not only about sending one emergency vehicle; we can dispatch 10-12 vehicles if needed. Our team is trained to deal with these large-scale situations quickly and effectively.

At HolyMess Repairs, we have a “help our fellow men” attitude. It's a big part of our company culture. No matter what the emergency is, our team, our heroes, are always prepared to step up and get the job done. We've worked with big names like Scotia Group, RACV, and Austin Hospital, and they can all vouch for our ability to handle large emergencies. We're here to help, and we take that responsibility very seriously.
