Roof repair & waterproofing in Ipoh
Ipoh, the capital of Perak, has a rich mix of old and newer housing. Ipoh Old Town and New Town are lined with pre-war and post-war shophouses with clay tiles and timber roofs, while established neighbourhoods such as Canning Garden, Ipoh Garden and Greentown have 1960s–1980s bungalows and terraces. Menglembu, Bercham, Tasek, Gunung Rapat and Pasir Puteh add many single- and double-storey terraces from the 1980s to the 2000s. Ipoh sits in the Kinta Valley surrounded by limestone hills, with hot days and heavy afternoon storms. Common problems include ageing clay and concrete tiles, termite-damaged timber trusses, leaking flat roofs on shophouses and rusted zinc extensions.
