Metal Roofing in Glen Waverley

Based in Rowville, we are a metal roofing and roof plumbing company working throughout Glen Waverley. More than 30 years of combined experience sits behind the team.

We repair what can be repaired, replace what cannot, convert tile roofs to Colorbond and install new roofs on extensions and rebuilds. Guttering, box gutters and downpipes are quoted with the roof rather than left for later.

Tile is still the covering on a lot of the houses we are asked to look at, so conversions come up often and we can talk you through what one involves. Contact us for a free quote.

    I recently had a portion of my roof replaced by VIC Metal Roofing and the guys did a top notch quality job. When I was looking for a roofer, I met with quite a few businesses until I found one that I could feel would deliver with quality and care. When I met Alex who came and did the quote it was clear that his business would deliver. The integrity stood out a mile from other businesses. Not only did they deliver quality, they responded without question to remedy a few small things and were able to fit me in earlier than originally scheduled. Communication with Alex was great with quick responses from start to finish. I would definitely recommend these guys if you are considering a new roof.

Common Questions

Roofing in Glen Waverley

  • Yes. Glen Waverley is in the City of Monash, which we cover in full, and we work out of Rowville. Send us the address and we will find a time to come and look at the roof.

  • Tiles are heavy, and taking them off removes a large amount of load from the roof frame. Some frames need to be checked and adjusted before a lighter covering goes on, and that assessment is an engineer's job. We tell you at the inspection whether yours is likely to need one, and we organise it if it does.

  • It depends on the house and the scope. Where a permit applies we manage the application as part of the job rather than leaving it with you. We do not guess at this, we check what applies to your address before quoting.

  • No. We are metal roofing specialists, so we do not re-bed, re-point or patch tiled roofs. What we do is take the tiles off and replace the roof in Colorbond steel.

  • We bring samples out and talk through how each one sits against the brickwork, the windows and the roof pitch. Profile does as much work as colour on how a finished roof looks, so it is worth deciding both properly rather than defaulting to whatever is fastest to order.

  • The whole City of Monash, including Ashwood, Burwood, Chadstone, Clayton, Hughesdale, Huntingdale, Mount Waverley, Mulgrave, Notting Hill, Oakleigh and Wheelers Hill, plus the neighbouring councils.

Roof Replacement and Re-Roofing

Where the existing roof is already metal, replacement is a shorter job than a conversion because the frame does not change. The old sheets, flashings and fixings come off, we check the battens and correct anything that has moved, then new Colorbond goes on. Most of the decisions you make are about profile, colour and whether the guttering goes at the same time.

Tile to Metal Conversions

The engineering and the permits are the part people ask about, but the part worth thinking about early is the look. A metal roof sits lower and reads flatter than tile, which changes the proportions of the house and how the eaves and gables present. Choosing the profile and the colour deliberately is what separates a conversion that suits the house from one that merely works. We bring samples, hold them against the walls and let you decide before anything is ordered.

Roof Repairs

On a metal roof with life left in it, repairs are the sensible spend. Corroded sheets, failed chimney and wall flashings, rusted valleys and loose fixings can all be dealt with in sections. If your roof is tiled we will be straight with you, because repairing tile is not our trade and we would rather say so than take the work on.

Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes

A conversion changes the gutter line, because sheet metal finishes lower than tile and the valleys are formed differently. That makes it the natural moment to renew the guttering, downpipes and fascia rather than adapt the old ones. We install and repair gutters, box gutters, downpipes and rainheads, sized for the roof feeding them. Clearing leaves and debris out of them is not.

Metal Cladding

Once a house has a metal roof, cladding a gable, a porch return or an addition in the same material pulls the whole exterior together. We work in Colorbond steel as well as zinc, copper, aluminium and brass. On a renovation it also solves the matching problem, because cladding does not attempt to imitate the original brickwork.

Commercial Roofing

The same crews work on commercial buildings, from shops and offices through to schools, community buildings and apartment blocks. Those jobs bring access and staging constraints that a house does not, since the building normally has to keep operating. We handle the planning with the owner, the committee or the facilities manager and set out the sequence in the quote.
