Metal Roofing in Ringwood

We are a metal roofing and roof plumbing company based in Rowville, one council south of Ringwood, with more than 30 years of combined experience behind the team.

That covers repairs, full re-roofs in Colorbond, tile roofs taken off and replaced with steel, and new roofs on extensions and new builds. Gutters, box gutters and downpipes are quoted with the roof, and the same team handles commercial buildings as well as houses.

Whether the building is a house, a shop or a block of units, the detailing is what decides how long the roof lasts. Contact us to book a comprehensive roof assessment.

Why Choose Us

Trusted With Ringwood Roofs, Large and Small

Metal roofing and roof plumbing is all this business does, and it has been doing it long enough for the team to carry more than 30 years of combined experience. The narrow focus is not modesty, it is the reason the flashings and the drainage get done properly.

We are licensed and insured, members of Master Plumbers, and we hold our own asbestos removal licence, which matters on older roofs of any kind. The Colorbond we install comes with the manufacturer backed warranty.

On a commercial building we deal with the owner, the owners corporation or the facilities manager, and on a house with the owner, and the assessment and the written scope work the same way either way. 25 Google reviews put the work at 5.0.

Common Questions

Roofing in Ringwood

  • Yes. Ringwood is in the City of Maroondah, which adjoins the City of Knox where we are based, so it is well within our area. Residential and commercial work both.

  • Yes, a large share of our work is commercial and industrial. Shops, offices, warehouses, factories and apartment buildings are all normal, and we deal with owners, owners corporations and facilities managers. Once we know what happens inside the building, the programme is built around it.

  • Usually not. The work is broken into sections and the roof is closed up before we leave each day, which is what makes it possible. Where trading hours or access make staging difficult, we will say so in the quote rather than let you find out later.

  • The old covering comes off, the frame and battens are inspected while they are open, then new Colorbond, new flashings and new fixings go on, with the guttering replaced where it needs it. Solar panels come off and go back on as part of the same job. The timeline and the full scope are set out in writing before we start.

  • Only to replace them. We are metal roofing specialists and do not re-bed, re-point or patch tiles. Stripping a tile roof and rebuilding it in Colorbond is something we do often, and it can need engineering input and a permit because of the weight change.

  • The rest of Maroondah, so Croydon, Croydon Hills, Heathmont, Kilsyth, Park Orchards and Warranwood, plus the councils bordering it.

Roof Replacement and Re-Roofing

Replacement is the job we are called out for most in Ringwood, usually once a roof has been patched more times than it was worth. Taking the whole covering off is the only way to see the frame, the battens and the fall on the drainage, so that is where we start. New Colorbond goes down with flashings detailed for the junctions on that particular building. Whatever we find underneath is shown to you and priced before it is touched.

Tile to Metal Conversions

A tile roof holds several tonnes that a steel roof does not, so taking the tiles off is a structural change and gets treated as one. Some houses need an engineer to assess the frame and a building permit issued first, and arranging that is part of our job rather than yours. The tiles and battens are removed and taken away, then the new steel roof, flashings and guttering go on. You choose the profile and the colour, which together do most of the work of changing how the house looks.

Roof Repairs

Not every roof that leaks needs replacing, and we are happy to say so. Flashings at parapets, chimneys and wall junctions, corroded valleys, tired penetrations and loose fixings are where water usually gets in. On a commercial roof the cause is as often the drainage as the covering, which is why both get checked. Repairs are scheduled work, since we are not an emergency service.

Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes

Guttering is quoted with the roof because it is part of the same system and fails in the same weather. What we look for is fall, joint condition, stop ends, rainhead capacity and whether the downpipes can shift what the roof above them collects. Box gutters get particular attention, since a failure there discharges inside the building rather than past it. We install, replace and repair the lot, though cleaning gutters is not work we take.

Metal Cladding

Metal cladding gives a wall the same life and the same low maintenance as the roof, which is why it suits additions and upper levels. Colorbond steel covers most of it, and zinc, copper and aluminium are there when a design wants a different finish. On a job that includes the roof, the cladding goes up using the access already in place, which keeps the cost down.

Commercial Roofing

On a commercial roof the roofing is often the easy part and the sequencing is the real work. We assess the roof, then write the scope in stages a business can absorb, with the noisy and the open stages placed where they cause the least disruption. Warehouses, factories, shops, schools and apartment buildings all fall inside this, and the larger jobs take us across the state. The owner, the owners corporation or the facilities manager is who we report to.
