Jaffna's roofing calendar runs opposite to the south of the island. The northeast monsoon from December to February is the wet season here, and roof work has to be finished before it rather than before May.

What to expect

  • Professionals covering Jaffna town and the peninsula, including hard-water and dry-season work
  • An inspection that identifies the cause, not just the wet patch
  • A quote covering battens, flashings and making good, not only tiles
  • Work scheduled in a dry window so sealants and coatings can cure

Helpful tips

Plan roof repairs for completion by November. Contractors working to an island-wide schedule aimed at the southwest monsoon will have your roof open at exactly the wrong time, and in Jaffna that means during the rains rather than before them.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about hiring in Jaffna

Questions about finding a tradesperson in Jaffna? Here are the answers homeowners ask most.

December to February, driven by the northeast monsoon. Roof work should be completed before it, which is a different calendar from Colombo, Galle and the southwest.

Coverings that handle sustained heat and strong sun as well as the northeast monsoon. Sheet roofs run very hot without insulation, so ventilation or an insulated deck is worth considering in this climate.
