Tile roofs: it is usually not the tiles
On the older Vierlanden homes the tiles themselves are often fine. What has gone is the mortar bedding at the ridges and hips, the flashing where the roof meets a wall, and the underlay, which after thirty years of Cape sun has gone brittle and torn at the batten line.
That means water that blows under a tile no longer runs out at the eaves. It drops straight through the failed underlay into the ceiling, usually several metres from where it came in.
Metal roofs: laps, screws and rust
On IBR and corrugated roofs the pattern is different. Side laps that were never sealed, screws that have loosened or lost their washers, and rust starting under the head of the fastener rather than on the sheet surface.
Liquid rubber solves all three at once when the preparation is right: rust cut out and treated, every fastener and lap reinforced, then a continuous membrane over the sheet. It also stops the drumming noise in heavy rain, which people are usually surprised by.

Budgeting
What roof waterproofing costs in Vierlanden
