Metal Roofing and Roof Plumbing in Caulfield

We are a metal roofing and roof plumbing company based in Rowville, and Caulfield sits well inside the area we work in. Our combined experience in the trade runs past 30 years.

We repair metal roofs, replace them, install them on new work, and strip tile roofs and replace them with Colorbond. Because we are licensed roof plumbers as well, the valleys, flashings, box gutters and downpipes are part of the same job.

Sheets rarely fail in the middle, so if your roof still has years in it a repair is usually the better spend, and we will say so at the inspection. Contact us for a free quote.

Why Choose Us

Metal Roofing and Roof Plumbing Specialists

Metal roofing and roof plumbing is the whole of what we do, rather than one service among several. Caulfield is close enough to our Rowville base that we are in the area regularly.

The work ranges from one house at a time through to industrial roofs across Victoria. That range pays off on a house too, because long sheet runs and large box gutters are ordinary for us rather than unfamiliar.

We are fully licensed and insured and members of Master Plumbers, and we carry our own asbestos roof removal licence. Customers have left their own account of the work in the Google reviews below.

What Our Customers Say

  • Georgia Smith Google Review

    We had a really great experience with Alex and Ben at Vic Metal Roofing. Their communication was clear from start to finish and their site management kept everything running smoothly. Everyone we interacted with were friendly and considerate while working at our home, which made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. Overall, we couldn't recommend the Vic Metal Roofing team enough - their work is high quality and we know it will last. They will definitely be our first call if we need any similar work done again.

  • Arnold Roxas Google Review

    Alex of Vic Metal Roofing recently replaced all the flashing on our garage roof and chimney to due to water leakage to meet current standards. The results exceeded our expectation, excellent workmanship, professional customer service and informative on the solution. Communications throughout the process from quotation to the works carried out was clear and concise. Also left everything neat and tidy. Based on our recent experience, we would highly recommend Vic Metal Roofing for their quality, service and overall value for money. 🤗

Common Questions

Roofing in Caulfield

  • Yes. Caulfield is inside the City of Glen Eira and we cover the whole council. We are based in Rowville, which puts Caulfield well within our normal working area.

  • Usually, yes. Water rarely comes in where the stain appears, because it runs along a batten or a rafter before it drops. We start at the penetrations and junctions above the stain and work down from there, and we will tell you what we found rather than just what we did.

  • We do them. Roof flashings and roof drainage are roof plumbing, and we are licensed roof plumbers, so the sheets, the flashings, the valleys and the gutters are all one trade on our jobs.

  • Yes. We take on commercial and industrial roofs as well as houses, and we deal directly with owners, owners corporations and facilities managers. On an occupied building the work gets staged so the tenants can keep operating.

  • We get on the roof rather than pricing from the driveway, look at the sheets, the flashings, the valleys and the drainage, and tell you what we think needs doing and in what order. There is no charge for it and no obligation afterwards.

Metal Roofing Services in Caulfield

Roof Replacement and Re-Roofing

Swapping one metal roof for another is the cleanest version of the job, and it is also the one where shortcuts hide best. Old flashings can be left in place and old fixings reused, and neither shows from the ground. We replace both across the whole roof, because a new sheet screwed down through a tired washer is a leak with a delay on it.

Tile to Metal Conversions

A tile roof puts a lot of weight on a house, and taking it off and replacing it with steel reduces that considerably. That is also why the frame has to be assessed rather than assumed, and why some conversions need engineering sign off and a permit. We do not repair or re-point tiles, so if a tile roof has reached the end, a conversion is what we can offer.

Roof Repairs

Chimneys, skylights, vents and the point where a lower roof runs into a wall are where most repairs end up. A flashing at any of those has to allow the sheet to move and still shed water, and when it stops doing one of those two things it leaks. Those are all repairable on their own, without touching sheets that are still sound.

Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes

Plenty of larger homes have a box gutter running inside the roof line instead of a gutter hanging off the edge. When one of those fails the water goes into the building rather than over the side of it, so the falls, the sizing and the overflow all have to be right. We rebuild box gutters, install rainheads and sumps, and replace standard guttering and downpipes. Cleaning is not a service we offer.

Metal Cladding

When cladding sits under a new metal roof, the two need to be considered together or the wall ends up a slightly different colour and a slightly different profile to the roof above it. We specify both at the same time and flash the junction so the wall drains into the roof drainage properly. Colorbond, zinc, copper and aluminium are all available.

Commercial Roofing

Commercial roofs are mostly a question of scale. Sheet runs get longer, the drainage is carrying far more water, and the access and safety setup takes real planning before anybody gets on the roof. We handle warehouses, retail, offices and apartment buildings, and we work in with owners corporations and facilities managers on occupied sites.
