# 24/7 Emergency Leak Response — Crown Roofers Sydney

> Water coming through the ceiling right now — rapid make-safe to stop the damage, then a proper repair.

An active leak stops being a roof problem quickly. Water tracks along ceiling joists, saturates insulation, pools above plasterboard and finds light fittings. The cost of the ceiling, the insulation and the electrical work usually exceeds the cost of the roof repair that would have prevented it.

The immediate priority is stopping water entering — temporary sheeting, tarping or sealing to get you through the weather. The permanent repair follows once we can see properly.

If water is coming in around a light fitting or into a switchboard, turn the power off at that circuit and tell us when you call.

All work is carried out under NSW Building Licence 471250C, covered by $20M public liability and backed by our 10-year workmanship guarantee.

## Why Crown Roofers for this service

- Sheeting or tiles visibly displaced during a storm

## FAQs
### What do I do while waiting?

Move what you can out of the way, put a container under the drip, and if water is anywhere near a light fitting, switch that circuit off at the board.

### Should I pierce a bulging ceiling?

A bulge means water is pooling above it and the weight is a genuine collapse risk. Many people relieve it deliberately into a bucket — do that only if you can do it safely, and keep clear of anything electrical.

### Can you repair in the rain?

We can make safe in the rain. A permanent repair usually needs a dry roof to be done properly, and we will not pretend otherwise.
