Roof repair & waterproofing in Bukit Mertajam
Bukit Mertajam is the main town of Seberang Perai Tengah on mainland Penang, with an old town of shophouses and established estates around Alma, Machang Bubok and Berapit. Newer townships such as Bandar Perda and the areas around Bukit Minyak and Juru have 2000s–2010s link homes, semi-Ds and industrial estates. Most landed homes are single- and double-storey terraces with concrete tiles on timber trusses, plus flat porches and kitchen extensions. The town sits beside Bukit Mertajam hill, so some homes get wind-driven rain and heavy run-off. Common issues include cracked tiles, rusted valley gutters, termite-damaged trusses, leaking extensions and flat porch roofs ponding after afternoon storms.

Are termites a common roof problem in Bukit Mertajam?
Yes, in older homes. Many Bukit Mertajam terraces have timber trusses, and termites can weaken them over years, causing sagging and shifted tiles. Our technician checks the trusses during the inspection. Truss strengthening or replacement is quoted after a structural check.
