Metal Roofing in McKinnon

We are a metal roofing company based in Rowville, working through McKinnon and the suburbs around it. The team's combined roofing experience runs past 30 years.

We replace old roofs, repair the ones worth repairing, convert tile roofs to Colorbond, and install new roofs on extensions, additions and new builds. Guttering, box gutters and downpipes are part of the same scope.

On new work we set the roof out to the plans and fit in with your builder's program. Contact us for a free quote.

  • Sarah Google Review

    We recently had the roof and guttering of our older two story weatherboard home replaced by Ben and Alex from Vic Metal Roofing, due to water leaks. The entire project was completed to a very high standard, and the results exceeded our expectations. Ben and Alex provided quality workmanship and clear communication, explaining all the issues and solutions in detail from the initial quote through to completion. Based on our experience, we highly recommend Vic Metal Roofing.

Common Questions

Roofing in McKinnon

  • Yes. McKinnon sits in the City of Glen Eira, which we cover in full from our base in Rowville.

  • Yes, and that is how most of them run. The new roof is built and made weathertight before the old wall or roof section is opened up, so the house stays closed in. We will tell you which days are noisy and what we need access to.

  • If you want it to, we work to the same profile and the closest available colour, and we will be honest about how close that gets on a roof that has been weathering for twenty years. Plenty of people go the other way and choose a deliberate contrast for the new section instead.

  • Yes. We are often the roofing trade on a job somebody else is running, and we will work to the program and the plans. We can also quote directly to you if the roofing is being handled separately from the build.

  • On a re-roof the panels come off before the sheets and go back on once the new roof is down. That is coordinated as part of the job rather than left for you to organise around us.

  • The full City of Glen Eira, including Bentleigh, Ormond, Murrumbeena, Carnegie, Glen Huntly, Caulfield, Elsternwick and Gardenvale, plus the councils either side.

Roof Replacement and Re-Roofing

Where an extension has gone on at some point, a replacement has to deal with two roofs that were never designed together. The pitches differ, the junction between them was often the cheapest solution available on the day, and that junction is usually where the trouble is. We set that detail out properly in the new roof rather than rebuilding the compromise.

Tile to Metal Conversions

Converting the original tile roof at the same time as roofing a new addition is the tidiest way to end up with one house rather than two stuck together. Same profile, same colour, same gutter line the whole way around. Where taking the tiles off changes the load enough to need an engineer or a permit, we arrange that as part of the job.

Roof Repairs

The most common repair we are called to on a house that has been extended is the join. An old roof meeting a newer one, or a new wall meeting an old roof, with a flashing that was never quite long enough or was fixed without allowing the sheets to move. Those come apart quietly over a few years and then leak in a downpour.

Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes

New roof area needs somewhere for its water to go, and tying a new gutter run into an existing system without checking the downpipe capacity is how you get a gutter that overflows only in heavy rain. We size the new drainage for the roof it is carrying and connect it properly. We install and replace guttering rather than clean it.

Metal Cladding

Second storey additions are where cladding earns its keep, because it is lighter than brickwork and it lets the new level read as its own thing rather than a mismatch. We install Colorbond steel as well as zinc, copper and aluminium, and detail the flashings at the junction with the original walls and the roof.

Commercial Roofing

New commercial work and commercial extensions are part of what we do as well as replacements. That means working to a builder's program, with the roof, the cladding and the drainage delivered as one package. Warehouses, retail, offices and apartment buildings are all within the range we handle.
