Old fittings off, tiles back in
Roof Alterations & Removals in Mandurah
Old antennas, whirlybirds, flues and roof-mounted units leave holes and fixings in the roof once they are no longer used.
What’s covered
- Antenna removal
- Whirlybird removal
- Flue removal
- A/C unit removal
- Hot water unit removal
- Closing and retiling redundant openings
- Roof batten repairs and replacement
- Sarking repairs
- Barge-board work and retiling
Every fitting that comes through a tiled roof is a place water can get in. Once an antenna, whirlybird, flue, A/C unit or hot water unit is redundant, it can come off and the opening can be closed and retiled, so that part of the roof is back to tiles.
The same work covers what sits under the tiles. Roof battens are repaired or replaced, sarking is repaired, and barge boards are worked on with the tiles relaid along the edge.
When you get in touch, say what is coming off, roughly where it sits on the roof, and whether it is still connected.
What to look for
Signs worth discussing.
- An antenna or dish that is no longer used
- A whirlybird or flue left from an old heater
- An old A/C or hot water unit on the roof
- Tiles sitting unevenly along a barge board

Say what is coming off
The fitting, where it sits and whether it is still connected.
Share a photo
A photo from the ground shows the fitting and the tiles around it.
Close it up
The opening is closed and retiled, and battens or sarking are repaired where needed.
For safety, keep roof observations and photos at ground level. Do not walk on a wet, damaged or unfamiliar roof.
Roof Alterations & Removals FAQ
Questions before you call.
Can you take off an old whirlybird and retile the hole?
Yes. Redundant whirlybirds, flues and antennas are removed and the openings closed and retiled.
Do you remove old hot water units from the roof?
Yes, where required. Say whether the unit is still connected when you get in touch.
Will the tiles over the old opening match?
Send a clear photo of the roof around the fitting. The business also sells roof tiles, though older profiles are harder to match.
