Metal Roofing in Camberwell
We are a metal roofing company based in Rowville, working throughout Camberwell, with a team that brings more than 30 years of combined experience in roofing.
We repair, replace and install metal roofs on Camberwell homes, from a rusted sheet or a failed flashing through to stripping a tile roof and replacing it with Colorbond. Gutters, box gutters and downpipes are part of the same job where they need doing.
Most of the housing here is established, which means the roofs are at the age where replacement is the sensible spend rather than another repair. Contact us for a free quote.

Roofing in Camberwell
Yes. Camberwell sits in the City of Boroondara, which is one of our priority areas, so we are working in and around it regularly. We are based in Rowville, roughly half an hour away.
Yes, and converting tile to metal is a large part of what we do. It is a bigger job than a metal-to-metal replacement because taking the tiles off changes the load on the roof frame, so it can need engineering input and a building permit. We work out what applies to your house at the inspection and coordinate the engineering, permits and carpentry.
Parts of Camberwell carry heritage overlays or neighbourhood character controls, and where they apply they can affect what you are allowed to do to a roof. We do not guess at this. We check what applies to your specific address as part of the quoting process and factor any permit work into the scope.
Gutters, box gutters and downpipes can be done on their own. That said, if the roof is going to be replaced within a few years it is usually cheaper to do both at once, because the access equipment and much of the labour overlap. We will tell you which way round makes sense for your roof.
It depends on the size and complexity of the roof, and whether it is a tile conversion. Tile conversions run longer because the tiles have to come off and be carted away and the battens usually need replacing. We put a timeline in the written quote and confirm the dates in the contract.
We cover the whole City of Boroondara, including Kew, Hawthorn, Hawthorn East, Canterbury, Surrey Hills and Ashburton, and we work across neighbouring Stonnington, Glen Eira, Whitehorse, Monash and Knox as well.

Metal Roofing Services in Camberwell
Replacing a Roof on an Established Camberwell Home
The roofs we are asked to replace in this part of Melbourne are generally decades old and have been repaired at least once. By the time someone calls, the question is usually not whether the roof needs doing but what it will involve. The answer depends on what is under the covering, which is why we get up and look before quoting rather than pricing from the street or from a photo.

Tile to Metal in Camberwell
Tile is the dominant roof covering on a lot of Camberwell housing, so conversions come up often. Beyond the engineering and permit side, the thing worth thinking about early is the look. A metal roof changes the proportions of a house considerably, and profile and colour do most of that work. It is worth deciding those properly rather than defaulting to whatever is quickest to order.

Repairs and Flashing Work
Where a roof still has life in it, repairs are the sensible option. On older homes the recurring culprits are the junctions: chimney flashings, the point where a lower roof meets a wall, and valleys that have corroded while the sheets either side are still sound. Those are all repairable without replacing the roof.
Guttering and Box Gutters
Larger and older homes frequently have box gutters running inside the roof line, and when one of those fails the water goes into the building rather than over the edge of it. Getting the falls, the sizing and the rainheads right matters more here than on a standard eaves gutter. We replace and repair the whole drainage system, including the flashings that tie it into the roof.

Extensions, Cladding and New Roofs
Renovation work is constant in Camberwell, and new roofing and cladding on a rear extension or second storey has to sit correctly against the original house. We install new roofs on extensions and additions, and metal cladding in Colorbond steel and architectural materials where the design calls for it. Read more about roof installation or

Commercial Roofing Around Camberwell
The Burke Road shopping strip and the surrounding streets carry a mix of retail, consulting suites and apartment buildings. Those roofs have the same problems as houses with the added constraint that the building cannot simply close while the work is done. We work directly with owners, owners corporations and facilities managers and stage the work around the tenants.
