Roof repair in Ironwood, townhouse and strata roof problems
Ironwood is the part of Richmond around Ironwood Plaza, near Steveston Highway and Highway 99. If you live in a townhouse complex here, roof problems often involve shared roofs and strata decisions. This page explains how that changes the repair process.
Local knowledge
Roof Repair in Ironwood, in plain terms.
A townhouse complex has rows of connected roofs. A leak in one unit may come from a roof shared with neighbours, so the strata corporation generally decides the repair. Report it to your manager promptly.
Connected roofs make flashing at party walls and shared valleys critical. A repair on one unit may affect neighbouring ones, so a provider will usually look at the whole roof section, not just your unit.
Detached homes in the area are generally managed by their owners. Whichever you have, mention it when you enquire so the provider knows whether to deal with you or a strata manager.
