ROOFING

Roof Replacement in Melbourne & Geelong

A roof reaches a point where patching individual problems costs more, over time, than starting again. Roof replacement is a full strip-and-replace: the old roofing comes off, the structure gets checked, and a new roof goes on in tile or metal, with new sarking, flashings and valleys.

WHAT THIS COVERS

What Roof Replacement Covers

Strip and disposal
Old roofing removed and disposed of to council requirements.
Structural check
Battens and frame assessed before new material goes on.
New roofing material
Tile or metal, based on what suits the property and budget.
Sarking & insulation
Replaced as part of the job, not left as an afterthought.
Flashings & valleys
Finished properly, since this is where most roof leaks start.
MORE DETAIL

Signs You Need a Replacement, Not a Repair

Frequent leaks in different spots signal the roof as a whole is failing, not just one section. Roof age matters too — older roofs nearing or past their expected lifespan cost more to keep patching. Visible sagging points to structural or widespread material failure, and extensive cracking or rust spread across the roof, rather than isolated to a few tiles or sheets, is another clear sign replacement makes more sense than another repair.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I need a replacement rather than a repair?
+
An inspection will show whether the damage is isolated or spread across the roof. We'll give you a straight answer, not just the more expensive option.
How long does a full roof replacement take?

This depends on roof size and material. We’ll confirm a realistic timeframe in the written quote.
Can I stay in the house during the work?

In most cases yes, though there will be noise and some disruption while the roof is open.
What happens to the old roofing material?
+
It's stripped and disposed of to council requirements as part of the job.
Does insurance cover roof replacement?
+
It depends on the cause of damage and your policy. We can provide the documentation needed to support a claim.
What affects the cost of a roof replacement?
+
Roof size, material choice, pitch, access, and whether structural repairs are needed.

Yes, all replacement work is covered by a workmanship warranty.
Can I upgrade from tile to metal during a replacement?
