The Part of the Roof That Does the Damage
Roof drainage causes more water damage than the roof itself. A rusted gutter, a box gutter with the wrong fall, or a downpipe discharging against a wall all put water somewhere it should not be, and usually inside the building.
We are roof plumbers, so this is our trade rather than an add-on. We install, replace and repair the full system: gutters, box gutters, downpipes, rainheads, sumps and the flashings that tie it all into the roof.
We do not offer gutter cleaning. If your gutters are failing rather than blocked, get in touch and we will come and look at them.

Roof Plumbing Is Half of What We Do
Gutters get treated as the cheap part of a roof, which is why so many of them are undersized or badly fallen. Getting the sizing, the falls and the rainhead capacity right is the difference between a system that copes with a downpour and one that overflows into the eaves.
Because we are roof plumbers rather than general builders, the drainage is designed with the roof rather than bolted on afterwards. Our team brings more than 30 years of combined experience to it.
We are fully licensed and insured and members of Master Plumbers, and we work in Colorbond so the guttering matches the roof.

I found Ben and Alex on google to redo my gutters, from start to finish they were upfront and honest. They got the job done in no time and I couldn't be happier!

We recently had the roof and guttering of our older two story weatherboard home replaced by Ben and Alex from Vic Metal Roofing, due to water leaks. The entire project was completed to a very high standard, and the results exceeded our expectations. Ben and Alex provided quality workmanship and clear communication, explaining all the issues and solutions in detail from the initial quote through to completion. Based on our experience, we highly recommend Vic Metal Roofing.

Gutter and Downpipe Questions
No. We install, replace and repair guttering, but gutter cleaning is not a service we offer. If your gutters are overflowing because they are blocked rather than because they have failed, you want a gutter cleaning service instead.
A box gutter runs inside the roof line rather than along the edge, usually between two roof planes or behind a parapet. When one fails the water goes into the building rather than over the side of it, which is why they cause far more damage than a standard eaves gutter.
Yes, guttering can be done on its own. That said, if the roof is likely to be replaced in the next few years it is usually cheaper to do both together, because the access equipment and much of the labour overlap.
Sometimes, but often it is a capacity or fall problem. Guttering that was undersized for the roof area, or that has sagged so the water sits rather than runs, will overflow even when it is clean. We work out which it is when we inspect it.
Yes. We work in Colorbond, so the guttering, fascia and downpipes can be matched to the roof colour or deliberately contrasted with it, whichever you prefer.
Gutters, Box Gutters and Downpipes in Melbourne
Gutter and Downpipe Installation
On a new roof the drainage is sized for the roof area it has to carry, and the downpipes are placed so the water goes somewhere sensible rather than against a wall or across a path. Getting that right at installation costs nothing extra and saves a lot later.

Gutter and Downpipe Replacement
Guttering rusts from the inside, so it usually looks worse from the roof than from the ground. Once it has rusted through at the base or the joins have opened up, replacement is the only real fix. It can be done in full or section by section.

Gutter and Downpipe Repairs
Leaking joins, damaged downpipes, failed box gutter sumps and overflow problems are all repairable. On box gutters in particular a repair done properly, with the right falls and a rainhead that can actually cope, solves a problem that has often been recurring for years.

Commercial Drainage
On warehouses and commercial buildings the drainage is carrying a much larger roof area, and a failure puts stock and operations at risk rather than just a ceiling. Box gutters, sumps and rainheads on commercial roofs are a significant part of our commercial work.
