Roof Rejuvenation for Home Sellers and Buyers in Dunedin
Few things stall a sale like an inspector writing that the roof is near the end of its life. If the shingles are old but sound, there may be a better answer than a price cut or a full replacement.

When a treatment helps a sale, and when it will not
Lots of Dunedin homes go on the market with their original roof. Inspectors flag those for age, and buyers and their insurers take note.
A roof that is truly failing cannot be rescued by treatment, and we will say so. Many flagged roofs, though, are simply dry and faded with plenty of service left in them. For those, treatment plus a few small repairs and a clear account of the roof's condition give both sides something solid to negotiate around.

Questions from buyers and sellers
Will treatment satisfy the buyer's insurance company?
- Insurers set their own rules, so nobody can promise that. What we can do is describe exactly what shape the roof is in and what work was carried out.
Can you work to a closing date?
- Usually. Give us the date when you first call and we will be honest about whether the schedule and weather allow it.
