Re: Cracked roof tiles 5Oct 15, 2020 6:56 am I think with any house there is a level of maintenance that homeowners should be aware of - drains, paint, roof tiles etc. Your roof tiles just might need more than usual. Maybe you need someone to get up on the roof once a year for a quick visual inspection. Whether the batch that is on your roof is faulty or the guys who installed it did a less than stellar job I'm unsure. Maybe as you say, get the Boral rep out for a look. They may say there are a few more than usual but not up to replacing the entire roof. See if they can give you a few sqm for free.

Someone came out and replaced a number of tiles in addition to the ones replaced by the solar installer. He said the way the tiles were cracked suggested a problem with the installation - something about the way the nail was hammered into the tile, from memory? Normally the inspection and tile replacement incurs a charge, but we never got a bill for it so I assume they sorted it out with our builder.
