Dented Pressed Metal (Decramastic) Roof Tiles: What You Need to Know

If your pressed metal (decramastic) roof has dented tiles, past foot traffic may be to blame. While it might not seem like a big issue at first, these dents can lead to bigger problems if left unaddressed.

Why Do Dented Tiles Matter?

When decramastic tiles become dented, their edges often lift from the tiles besides them. This creates gaps that, if larger than 5 millimetres, allow water to funnel underneath, especially when the wind is blowing in the right direction.

Another issue is water pooling in the centre of dented tiles. Unlike a flat surface where rainwater runs off easily, these dips trap water, causing it to linger long after the rain has stopped. Over time, this leads to rust patches, which can weaken the roof and cause leaks.

How We Fix It

Restoring your decramastic roof involves more than just a quick patch-up. Our process ensures a watertight, long-lasting solution:

• Tile Realignment – We carefully bend the tiles back into their proper shape, eliminating gaps and preventing water from pooling.
• Sealing & Protection – Once realigned, we follow a professional painting procedure to seal and protect the tiles from further wear and tear.
• Preventative Maintenance – Regular roof inspections can help catch these issues early, saving you from costly repairs down the line.
