Metal Roofing and Roof Plumbing in Prahran

We are a metal roofing and roof plumbing company running out of Rowville, and we work throughout Prahran as part of the City of Stonnington. More than 30 years of combined experience sits behind the team.

The work covers the full range, from repairing a failed flashing or a rusted valley through to replacing a roof outright in new Colorbond. Tile to metal conversions, new roofs on extensions, and the gutters, box gutters and downpipes are all part of it.

Houses and commercial buildings both sit inside that, with the work staged so a building with tenants can keep operating. Contact us for a free quote.

Common Questions

Roofing in Prahran

  • Yes. Prahran is part of the City of Stonnington, an area we work in regularly, and we come from Rowville. We quote houses and commercial buildings there on the same terms.

  • In most cases, yes. We stage the roof in sections, keep the areas being worked on sealed and safe, and agree access and hours with you before we start. It is worth telling us at the inspection which parts of the building cannot be disrupted.

  • Usually the gutter, the sump or the rainhead is too small for the roof draining into it, or the fall has flattened out over time. Because a box gutter sits inside the building line, the overflow goes indoors rather than over an edge. We measure the roof area it serves and rebuild the drainage to suit it.

  • We do. For units and apartment buildings we deal with the owners corporation or the managing agent, provide the written scope they need for approval, and coordinate access with residents.

  • Yes. We are licensed to remove asbestos roofing and to manage its disposal compliantly, which is the only lawful way for that material to come off a building. It is identified and priced at the inspection rather than discovered mid job.

  • The rest of the City of Stonnington, which is Armadale, Glen Iris, Kooyong, Malvern, South Yarra, Toorak and Windsor, and the neighbouring councils around them.

Roof Replacement and Re-Roofing

Replacing a roof on a tight site is as much a planning job as a roofing one, because materials, waste and access all have to work in a small footprint. We sort that out before the first sheet comes off, then strip the roof, assess the structure and install new Colorbond with new flashings and fixings. Neighbours and tenants get told what is happening and when.

Tile to Metal Conversions

If the house still has its original tile roof, converting to metal cuts the weight on the frame and gives you a covering with a warranty behind it. The tiles come off and get carted away, the battens are usually renewed, and the change in load can call for engineering advice and a building permit. We establish what applies at your address and organise it as part of the job.

Roof Repairs

On a building with tenants or neighbours close by, a leak is somebody else's problem as well as yours. We repair the things that usually cause them, which are wall and parapet flashings, corroded valleys, failed penetrations and gutter joins that have given way. Where a repair is only buying time, we say so and give you the replacement figure instead.

Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes

Box gutters are the part of a roof most likely to cause real damage, because they run inside the building rather than around the edge of it. Getting the fall, the width, the sump and the rainhead right for the roof above is the whole job. We rebuild box gutter systems as well as standard eaves gutters and downpipes, though we do not offer gutter cleaning.

Metal Cladding

Cladding earns its place where a wall is exposed, hard to maintain or part of a new addition that should not pretend to be original. Colorbond steel is the practical option, and zinc, copper and aluminium are available where the look matters more. We install it on houses and commercial facades, detailed into the roof line properly.

Commercial Roofing

Shops, offices above shops, consulting suites, hospitality venues and apartment buildings all end up needing roof work eventually. The constraint is rarely the roofing itself, it is doing it without closing the business or emptying the building. We quote the full scope, stage the work in sections and keep the site secure between visits.
