What we fix in Canberra
I’m Victor from Holy Mess Repairs. Canberra’s frosts, summer hail and gum leaves are hard on everything attached to a roof. Most repairs we see trace back to water, so we find out why something failed before we price it.
Pergolas and outdoor structures
The junction between a pergola and the house is a common leak point. We look at the connection, the gutter and the flashings together.
Eaves, fascias and downpipes
Rotted eaves and fascias usually mean the gutters have been overflowing. We fix them together with the gutters and valleys.
Storm and hail damage
We make it safe first, then repair it, and document the damage for your insurer.
Battens, door jambs, gables and insulation
Loose or rotted roof battens, damaged door jambs, gable ends, and old or degraded ceiling insulation replaced from inside the roof. If it’s on your list, ask us: we can most likely do it.
Make-safe for insurers and agents
Stabilised, weather-tight and written up the way insurers and their agents need it.
For leaks, see roof repairs, skylights and waterproofing.

- We work out the cause. Water, rust, movement or impact: we find out why it failed, not just what failed.
- Options and a price. A free phone estimate, then a written document with the likely scenarios, what each costs and the warranty.
- We fix it properly. With the right materials and fixings, by licensed tradespeople.
- Photos and paperwork. Before and after photos, and the documentation an insurer or body corporate needs.
