The Roof & Wall Doctor’s main work activity is the removal of existing roofs on private homes and buildings, and their replacement with Zincalume or Colorbond.
We are a Registered Building Company, also actively involved in the restoration of roof and walls for National Trust Heritage Buildings, throughout Western Australia.
We are pleased to list some of the substantial Heritage Buildings, that The Roof & Wall Doctor has restored, during the current financial year, we are, for The National Trust of Australia.
- THE PERTH OBSERVATORY in West Perth
- THE OLD CHRIST’S CHURCH in Mandurah
- POLICE STATION in Wickepin
- TRANBY HOUSE in Maylands
- GWAMBYGINE HOMESTEAD in York
All of the above buildings are supervised by the appropriate National Trust Architects. The major requirement to restore a National Trust building is to remove all alterations that have been incorrectly added to these buildings.
Then using our highly skilled tradesmen, we replace these incorrect additions using old fashioned methods and materials.
In all cases our aim is to restore the building to its former glory and in the case of old walls, allow these walls to breathe, as they did originally.
The Company has won many awards for it’s Heritage Restoration and offers a complete service from an initial investigation of problems and liaison with the appropriate Architects, through to the quotation, specifying and completion of the works to the appropriate standards.
