Take down what you no longer use, and leave the roof watertight.
Disused antennas, dishes, evaporative coolers and flues clutter the roofline and are common leak points. We remove them safely, patch the penetrations properly and take everything away.

Understanding roof fixture removal
The removal is the easy part; what is left behind matters. Every fixture has bolts, brackets or a hole through the roof. If that hole is only covered with silicone, it will usually leak eventually.
We replace damaged or drilled tiles, fit proper flashings or patch metal sheeting, and match the finish as closely as possible. It is also an ideal step before a restoration, so the new coating goes over a clean, solid roof.

How we do it, step by step
You will know what is happening on your roof at every stage. We share photos as we go so nothing is hidden behind the gutter line.
See our work in the galleryIdentify connections
We check for water, power and gas connections, and coordinate with a licensed trade if anything needs disconnecting first.
Remove fixture
Fixtures are dismantled and lowered safely.
Patch & seal
Penetrations are closed with replacement tiles, flashings or sheet patches, not just sealant.
Internal check
Where relevant, we check the ceiling side of the opening.
Haul away
Old fixtures and materials are removed from site.
Good to know
Disconnections
Evaporative coolers and gas flues may need a licensed plumber or electrician to disconnect first. We will tell you upfront.
Bundle it
Removing several fixtures in one visit, or before a restoration, is the most cost-effective approach.
Ceiling vents
Removing a cooler leaves a ceiling vent. We can discuss how to close that off.
Roof Fixture Removal FAQs
Do you take the old cooler away?
Yes. Removal from site is included.
Can you match my tiles?
We source matching or close-matching tiles. On older roofs we may borrow tiles from a less visible spot.
Will removing an antenna affect my TV?
Only if it is still connected. We confirm with you before removing anything.
