Metal Roofing and Roof Plumbing in Ferntree Gully

We are a metal roofing company with our yard in Rowville, and we cover homes right through Ferntree Gully. More than 30 years of combined roofing experience sits behind the team.

We install new roofs, replace old ones, convert tile to Colorbond steel and repair what is worth repairing. Guttering, box gutters and downpipes come with the roof rather than as a separate trade and a separate wait.

Every job starts with someone getting up on the roof, because a price from the footpath is a guess. Send us an address and we will quote it for free.

Why Choose Us

More Than 30 Years of Metal Roofing Experience

Metal roofing and roof plumbing is the whole business, with more than 30 years of combined experience across the team. Conversions and full replacements are everyday work rather than something we take on occasionally.

We are licensed and insured, members of Master Plumbers, and licensed to remove asbestos roofing and dispose of it compliantly. That keeps the strip and the new roof inside one contract on an older house.

We work at both ends, from a single home to warehouse and industrial roofs, and the Colorbond we install carries manufacturer backed warranties. Google reviewers have rated us 5.0 across 25 reviews.

Common Questions

Roofing in Ferntree Gully

  • Yes. Ferntree Gully sits in the City of Knox and our yard is in Rowville inside the same council, so we are around the area regularly. Send the address and we will get an inspection booked.

  • Longer, because there is a demolition stage before the new roof starts. The tiles have to come off and be carted away, and the battens are usually replaced. We put a timeline in the written quote rather than quoting a standard number of days.

  • Sometimes. Taking tiles off changes the load the frame carries, so an engineer may need to review it and a building permit may be required. We work out what applies to your address during the inspection and arrange whatever is needed.

  • We work in sections and close the roof in at the end of each day. If weather is coming we plan the staging around it, which is one of the reasons we never strip more than we can cover.

  • You can pick from the full Colorbond range, and we bring samples to the inspection. A colour behaves differently across a whole roof in daylight than it does on a small chip held indoors, which is worth seeing before you commit.

  • All of them, including Bayswater, Boronia, Knoxfield, Lysterfield, Rowville, Sassafras, Scoresby, The Basin and Wantirna, along with the councils on either side.

Metal Roofing Services in Ferntree Gully

Roof Replacement and Re-Roofing

Whether the existing roof is tile or metal, a replacement is the chance to deal with everything under the covering at once. We pull the old roof off, look at rafters, battens and sarking while they are visible, and build the new roof up in Colorbond with fresh flashings, ridge capping and valleys. Nothing extra reaches the price without us showing you why first.

Tile to Metal Conversions

This is the job we get asked about most. Beyond the weight coming off the frame and the permit side, the decision worth taking time over is the look, because profile and colour change the proportions of a house more than people expect. We run through the options with samples on site instead of leaving you to choose from a screen.

Roof Repairs

Not every roof that leaks needs replacing, and we would rather tell you that than sell you a roof. Failed flashings at chimneys and walls, corroded valley irons and loose fixings are all repairable while the sheeting around them is sound. What we do not do is patch, re-bed or re-point tiles.

Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes

When a roof gets replaced the guttering usually deserves the same treatment, since it is the same age and has been carrying everything the roof shed. We renew gutters, box gutters, rainheads, downpipes and fascia, sized for the roof area above them. Gutter cleaning is not part of our services.

Metal Cladding

Cladding is a practical answer when an extension has to sit against an older house and matching the original material would look forced. Colorbond steel is the common choice, with zinc, copper and aluminium available. It weathers like a roof, which is to say it mostly looks after itself.

Commercial Roofing

We also roof shops, warehouses, schools and apartment buildings. Scale changes the equipment and the staging, and the usual constraint is that the building cannot stop trading while the roof is open. Owners, owners corporations and facilities managers deal with us directly on that.
