Metal Roofing and Roof Plumbing in Yarra Glen
We are a metal roofing company based in Rowville, and Yarra Glen is part of the Shire of Yarra Ranges that we travel to. More than 30 years of combined roofing experience underpins the team.
The work takes in repairs, roof replacement and re-roofing in Colorbond, and tile to metal conversions. New roofing on builds and extensions, metal cladding, and the gutters, box gutters and downpipes come with it.
The colour and profile of a new roof are decided before anything is ordered, which is also what sets the realistic start date. Contact us to book a comprehensive roof assessment.

What Our Customers Say
- Dylan Peterson Google Review
I couldn't be happier with Alex and the whole VIC Metal Roofing team! They replaced our old rusted and leaking corrugated iron roof with a new Colorbond one, and the difference is night and day. It looks phenomenal now and the stress when it rains is gone. The team were fantastic from start to finish. Very responsive and helpful whenever we had questions.

VicMetal Roofs have done an incredible job re-roofing our 50 year old roof. It was a complicated job and we are so happy with the end result. Ben and Alex were great to deal with, professional, excellent communication and a competitive price. We are really happy and highly recommend this business. Great work Ben and Alex

First class-Alex and the team were friendly, professional, and did what they said they would do. Couldn't fault them on our re-roofing project at a community kindergarten.

Roofing in Yarra Glen
Yes. Yarra Glen is in the Shire of Yarra Ranges and we travel to it from Rowville, and for commercial and industrial work we go Victoria wide.
Mostly it depends on the sheets rather than the crew, because the colour you choose drives the lead time. Settling the profile and colour early is what makes an early start possible, and we put realistic dates in the quote rather than hopeful ones.
Yes, and a good share of the replacements we do are exactly that. The tiles coming off take several tonnes from the roof frame, which makes it a structural change that can need engineering input and a building permit. We establish what applies to your building and organise it.
Not on a steel roof. Cracked and slipped tiles, crumbling ridge bedding and pointing washing into the gutters all stop being part of your maintenance, because a metal roof has far fewer parts that can fail.
Yes. Shops, warehouses, community buildings and apartment blocks are a regular part of our work, and we deal with owners corporations and facilities managers as well as individual owners. The staging is planned around how the building is used.
Every suburb in the shire, with Healesville, Coldstream and Chirnside Park among the closest, plus the councils bordering the shire.

Roof Replacement and Re-Roofing
Two things shape the timeline on a replacement, and neither is how fast the crew works. The first is the colour, because that sets the lead time on the sheets, and the second is whatever we find once the covering is off. We quote the roof we can see, name the unknowns honestly, and show you what is there before it is covered again. The new roof then goes on with new cappings, valleys and flashings so nothing old is carrying the new work.

Tile to Metal Conversions
The weight is what makes a conversion different. Several tonnes of tile leaving a frame that was designed around carrying it is a structural change, so some buildings need an engineer and a building permit before work can start, and we arrange both. What you get in return is a roof with far fewer parts to fail, since the bedding, the pointing and the individual tiles all disappear from the maintenance list. The tiles and battens are loaded and carted away as part of the job.

Roof Repairs
Flashings and fixings between them explain most roof leaks. A flashing at a chimney or a wall junction depends on being lapped and fixed correctly rather than sealed, and when it fails the water has a clear path inside. Fixings fail more quietly, because the rubber washers under the screw heads perish long before the steel, which produces a roof that leaks only in driving rain. Both are repairable where the rest of the roof is sound.
Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes
Box gutters are sized for a job rather than simply fitted. The fall, the width, the rainhead and the overflow all have to suit the roof area draining into them, and one that was undersized when it was built will overflow regardless of how well it is sealed. Eaves gutters fail more simply, rusting at the joins and wherever the fall has flattened. We replace and repair the lot, and size the downpipes against the actual catchment.

Metal Cladding
Cladding gets asked for on additions and upper levels, where new work meets existing brick or render, and it also comes up as a replacement job because older cladding wears out the same way a roof does. Colorbond handles most of it and can be related to the roof above, while zinc, copper and aluminium are there where the material is part of the design. Behind the sheets, the battens and drainage are what keep the wall dry.

Commercial Roofing
Commercial and industrial roofing takes us right across Victoria, so distance rarely decides whether we quote a job. Warehouses, shops, community buildings and apartment blocks all share the constraint that the building has to keep working, so sheeting is replaced in stages and the roof is weathertight each evening. On strata buildings there is one point of contact rather than a chain of them. Box gutters, rainheads and downpipes are quoted in the same scope as the sheets.
