Frequently Asked
Questions

Do you need to access my home interior for the job?

Porirua Roofers doesn’t need to go inside your home. We only need access to electricity, usually by running an extension cord through a window.

Can Porirua Roofers replace a roof in winter?

We can replace your roof any time of year. During winter, there may be minor delays to ensure the weather is fine. We only work when it’s dry.

How long will it take to complete a re-roof?

A re-roof by Porirua Roofers takes between 3 and 7 days. This depends on the roof’s size and complexity. We’ll give an estimated time when you book the job.

How early should I schedule a new roof installation?

We usually schedule about one month ahead of time. Booking early with Porirua Roofers helps plan for the installation timeline and allows for weather-related changes.
