Metal Roofing and Roof Plumbing in Balwyn
Metal roofing and roof plumbing is all we do, run from a base in Rowville and taken across Balwyn and the rest of Boroondara. More than 30 years of combined experience sits behind the team.
On Balwyn homes that means repairs where a roof still has life in it, full re-roofing where it does not, tile to metal conversions, and new roofs on extensions. Gutters, box gutters and downpipes are renewed in the same visit when they need it.
Established houses tend to have complicated roofs, and the junctions fail long before the sheets do. Planning those properly is most of the work. Get in touch for a free quote.

More Than 30 Years of Roofing Behind Us
In any given month our crews might be re-roofing a house, re-laying a set of box gutters and sheeting a factory. That range is why an awkward roof shape is a normal day rather than a reason to add a margin for the unknown.
Experience shows up in the parts of a roof you never see once the job is finished. Flashing a wall junction or a chimney so it still holds in ten years takes practice, and it is the difference between a roof that is finished and one that only looks finished.
We are licensed and insured, Master Plumbers members, and licensed for asbestos roof removal and compliant disposal. Every roof we install is Colorbond with manufacturer backed warranties, and Balwyn sits inside the Boroondara area we cover.

What Our Customers Say
- Marika Cominos Google Review
I recently had a portion of my roof replaced by VIC Metal Roofing and the guys did a top notch quality job. When I was looking for a roofer, I met with quite a few businesses until I found one that I could feel would deliver with quality and care. When I met Alex who came and did the quote it was clear that his business would deliver. The integrity stood out a mile from other businesses. Not only did they deliver quality, they responded without question to remedy a few small things and were able to fit me in earlier than originally scheduled. Communication with Alex was great with quick responses from start to finish. I would definitely recommend these guys if you are considering a new roof.

Roofing in Balwyn
Yes. Balwyn is in the City of Boroondara and we cover the council in full. Our workshop is in Rowville, which keeps this side of Melbourne well within reach.
No, it is normal on an established home and it is the kind of roof we spend most of our time on. The work sits in the junctions, so the flashings, valleys and ridge lines get planned before the first sheet goes down. Complexity does affect the price and the timeline, and both are set out in the quote.
Colorbond comes in a wide colour range and several profiles, and the combination changes how a house reads from the footpath. We bring samples to the inspection and go through what suits your brickwork, windows and any roof that is staying. The choice is yours.
Usually, and it is the sensible order. The gutters have to come off to rebuild the roof edge anyway, so replacing them then costs far less than returning for a separate job later. If the guttering is genuinely sound we will tell you to leave it.
No. We are not a 24 hour emergency service, and repairs and replacements are scheduled work. If a roof is leaking now, get in touch and we will tell you the earliest we can have someone assess it.
Every one of them, including Camberwell, Canterbury, Kew, Hawthorn, Deepdene, Surrey Hills and Ashburton. Beyond Boroondara we work through Whitehorse, Monash, Stonnington, Glen Eira and Knox.

Roof Replacement and Re-Roofing
Replacing a roof on a house that has been extended once or twice means dealing with roof planes that were built at different times and do not always meet neatly. We set out the new sheeting, ridges and valleys so the whole roof works as one again rather than as a set of patches. Everything comes off, the frame and battens get checked, and new Colorbond goes on with fresh flashings. You will know the sequence and the timeline before the first day.

Tile to Metal Conversions
A tile roof puts a lot of weight onto a frame that has carried it for decades. Taking the tiles off and sheeting in metal removes that load, which is welcome structurally but can bring engineering input and a building permit into the job. We establish which of those apply, strip and cart away the tiles, then install the new roof with sarking and new flashings throughout.

Roof Repairs
On a roof with plenty of hips and valleys, the leak is almost never in the middle of a sheet. It is a valley that has corroded under the leaves, a flashing that has lifted at a wall, or ridge capping with fixings that have worked loose. All of that is repairable, and we will tell you honestly if the roof has passed the point where repairs are worth the money.
Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes
A long roof plane sends a lot of water into a short length of gutter, and if the downpipes cannot carry it away the gutter overflows in every heavy fall. We size the drainage to the roof area above it, replace rusted gutters and fascia, and add downpipes or rainheads where the numbers call for them. Gutter cleaning is not a service we take on.

Metal Cladding
Cladding suits a wall that needs a finish it will not have to be repainted. On a designed extension it can also carry a material the roof cannot, which is why we install zinc, copper and aluminium alongside Colorbond steel. The junctions where cladding meets roof, window or brick are detailed as roof plumbing, because that is what keeps water out of them.

Commercial Roofing
Our commercial work includes apartment buildings and townhouse developments, where the roof and the drainage are shared and the decision sits with an owners corporation. We are used to quoting in that format, staging the work so residents keep access, and reporting as the job moves along. The same crews and the same detailing standards apply as on a house.
