Metal Roofing in Belgrave

We are a metal roofing company based in Rowville, and Belgrave sits inside the run we travel for roofing work. The team carries more than 30 years of combined experience between them.

On a Belgrave roof that can mean chasing down a leak, replacing sheets that have rusted through, stripping a tile roof and rebuilding it in Colorbond, or sheeting a new extension. Gutters, box gutters and downpipes are quoted as part of the roof rather than as a separate visit.

The useful part of the first visit is a straight answer on whether you are looking at a repair or a replacement. Contact us to book a comprehensive roof assessment.

What Our Customers Say

  • Georgia Smith Google Review

    We had a really great experience with Alex and Ben at Vic Metal Roofing. Their communication was clear from start to finish and their site management kept everything running smoothly. Everyone we interacted with were friendly and considerate while working at our home, which made the whole process feel easy and stress-free. Overall, we couldn't recommend the Vic Metal Roofing team enough - their work is high quality and we know it will last. They will definitely be our first call if we need any similar work done again.

    Highly recommend Alex and his team. He took the time to inspect the project and find out what I needed before making his recommendations. Excellent communication and project management he kept me informed of project start date, turned up on time, and kept a tidy worksite. Excellent quality of work, and took the time to customise the fitting and installation due to the quirky nature of my home.

Common Questions

Roofing in Belgrave

  • Yes. Belgrave is in the Shire of Yarra Ranges and we travel out to it from Rowville for houses and commercial buildings alike. Send the address through if you want it confirmed before you book.

  • Yes. Removing tiles takes a lot of weight off the roof frame, so the change can need engineering input and a building permit. We establish what applies to your house at the assessment and organise that side of it, along with carting the old tiles away.

  • We stop and show you. Rotted timber, sagging rafters and failed battens are the usual finds, and dealing with them while the roof is open costs far less than returning to it later. Nothing is added to the job without you seeing it first.

  • No, gutter cleaning is not something we take on. We install, replace and repair gutters, box gutters, downpipes and rainheads, so if a gutter is overflowing because of its fall or its sizing rather than debris, that is work we can fix.

  • No. We are not a 24 hour service and repairs are booked in. If the roof is leaking now, get in touch and we will tell you the earliest we can have someone look at it.

  • All of them in the shire, with Tecoma, Upwey, Selby, Kallista and Sherbrooke among the closest, plus Knox next door.

Metal Roofing Services in Belgrave

Roof Replacement and Re-Roofing

An old metal roof fails from the fixings and the laps outward, so by the time the leaks are regular the sheets have usually gone too far to patch. We strip the covering back, check the battens and the frame while they are visible, and build the new roof in Colorbond with new flashings throughout. Profile and colour get decided before anything is ordered, with samples held against the house rather than picked off a chart.

Tile to Metal Conversions

A tile roof leaking through its bedding and pointing is not something we repair, so in Belgrave the conversation is usually about converting it instead. Once the tiles and battens are off, the frame is carrying several tonnes less and has to be assessed for the change. We arrange the engineering and permit work where it is needed, cart the tiles off site, and sheet the roof in steel with new guttering. The house looks noticeably different afterwards, which is why the profile and colour are worth settling properly.

Roof Repairs

Where the sheets still have life in them, a repair is good value. Chimney flashings, the junction where a lower roof meets a wall, and valleys that have corroded while the sheets either side are sound are the usual sources. Water runs along battens and rafters before it drops, so the stain on the ceiling rarely sits under the entry point. We trace it properly before quoting anything.

Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes

Eaves gutters go at the joins and behind the fascia, where nothing shows until the timber has already softened. Downpipes are the other common fault, often sized for a smaller roof than the one now draining into them. We replace gutters, downpipes, rainheads and fascia covers, and the guttering can be done on its own where the roof above it is still sound.

Metal Cladding

Cladding comes up most on extensions and second storeys, where matching the original brick is either impossible or not worth the money. Running the same Colorbond as the roof down a wall ties the two together and gives the wall the same working life. Zinc, copper and aluminium are there for jobs where the finish is doing more of the work. When cladding goes up alongside a re-roof the access is already set, so neither part has to be booked twice.

Commercial Roofing

Commercial work sits alongside the houses rather than being a sideline. Workshops, sheds, shops and community buildings all come up, and the roofing itself is often simpler than the staging around it. We quote in sections so the building keeps operating and the roof is closed at the end of each day. Where the old sheeting turns out to be asbestos cement, we remove and dispose of it under our own licence.
