Maintaining My Home

membrane manufacturers/suppliers typically train and license applicators in the use of their membranes. Repairs or replacements should also be carried out by these trained/approved applicators. Work or repair materials incompatible with the original membrane system may void the warranty and may make the problem worse

repair or replacement of roofing membranes is restricted building work and where done by a tradesperson, must be carried out or supervised by a licensed building practitioner with the relevant licence class for that type of roofing

if the existing membrane must be replaced, and it has not met minimum Building Code durability provisions applicable (15 years), a building consent will be required

carry out regular maintenance as recommended or required by the manufacturer/supplier
