Southern Cross Roofing News

19th November 2011

Saturday, November 19, 2011

As Southern Cross Roofing are New-Roof, Re-roof, roof extension and roof repairs specialists, we were recently one of very few roofing specialist companies to be invited along to to the exclusive CSR specialist conventions.

The convention was held in Port Stephens and was providing roofing companies with relevant information to the roofing industry. New roof tile products and colour products were highlighted. The CSR representatives discussed changes in the work code and the direction that not only CSR are heading in, but the direction that they want their specialists to head in. We were taught how to make the most of CSR and given information on how to update promotions and websites.

Southern Cross Roofing were invited along exclusively as we were promoting the Nullaboor tile. CSR were aware that Mark Webster, the director of Southern Cross Roofing, had used this tile on his own property and wanted to highlight the reason for him choosing this product. As roofing specialsits and property owner Mark choose the Nullaboor tile because of its quality.

Due to the recent weather that Sydney has been exposed to, Southern Cross Roofing has been very busy working on lots of roof repairs and pending roof maintenance. New roofs and re-roofs are extremely difficult to conquer in this stormy weather due to the safety of the roofers and the amount of time that the bare roof would be exposed to the elements.

Southern Cross Roofing have found many difficult problems arising over the last few weeks that you may find could apply to your own roofs. Not only have we been finding leaf debris in gutters but also in valley lines, this in turn creates blockages causing water to penetrate into the roof area and leaking to occur not only in the outside of the home but in many cases the inside.

We have had many requests for roof repairs in the instances of broken tiles and the re-bedding and pointing of ridge caps which are common problems that we are happy to fix.

If you have experienced any of these problems or any similar problems relating to your roof, why not give Southern Cross Roofing a call on 02 9477 7961. We will be happy to come to your home a offer a free roofing quote.

The Green Roof Advocacy

Wednesday, March 16, 2011
Did you know that the rapidly growing “Green Advocacy” has already extended its influence even in roofing systems? Environmentalists give two thumbs up and more for the innovation of these ecologically-friendly “green roofs.”

The green roofing system includes establishing a real house roof which is covered, or partly covered, with different kinds of vegetation. There are actually two classifications of green roof. Intensive green roofs are thick and allows a big variety of plants to be rooted on it while extensive green roofs are covered with less amount of vegetation.

In Australia, green roofs are becoming more and more popular by the minute. There exist a few groups formed exclusively for promoting the advocacy for green roofs. Well, why shouldn’t it be given attention? When it can probably help most Australians with their daily life, particularly those who live in places like Sydney, North Shore and the like.

Green roofs have numerous benefits than disadvatages. The vegetation installed help in reducing hot temperature. Roof leaks may also be greatly lessened because the plants will absorb the rainwater. Pollutants and dirt will be filtered. It will give way to habitats for some tiny animals, and many more.

The only undesirable thing about green roofs is that they are costly and must be highly maintained. Over time though, roofing experts have assured people that interests from investing in a green roof will be realized in the long-run.

If you are one of those who are environmentally conscious, then why don’t you try installing green roofs for your home?
