Rust through metal roof sheeting at the laps
Rust On Your Roof

Rust Does Not Stay Where It Starts

Rust begins wherever water sits rather than runs: the laps between sheets, the valleys, behind flashings and around every fixing. Those are the places you cannot see from the ground.

Left alone it works through the sheet, and once it is through, the roof is letting water into the building whether or not you can see a stain yet.

Caught while it is still confined to a section, it is a repair. Left until it is general across the roof, it is a replacement.

Cut Out the Rust, Restore the Roof

We remove the corroded sheets and sections and replace them with new material, and we deal with the flashings and fixings around them at the same time, because those are usually part of why the rust started.

The point of the repair is to get years more out of a roof that is otherwise sound. Where the corrosion has gone too far for that to be true, we will tell you rather than take the work.

Metal roofing is the only trade we work in, and our team brings more than 30 years of combined experience to it.

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.

    Alex of Vic Metal Roofing recently replaced all the flashing on our garage roof and chimney to due to water leakage to meet current standards. The results exceeded our expectation, excellent workmanship, professional customer service and informative on the solution. Communications throughout the process from quotation to the works carried out was clear and concise. Also left everything neat and tidy. Based on our recent experience, we would highly recommend Vic Metal Roofing for their quality, service and overall value for money. 🤗

Common Questions

Rusted Roof Questions

  • Surface rust on an otherwise sound sheet can sometimes be managed, but once it has gone through the steel there is nothing left to treat. Coating over rust that has penetrated hides it rather than stopping it.

  • That is exactly what the inspection determines. Sometimes it is a run of sheets along one valley, sometimes it is a whole roof plane. We quote what actually needs doing.

  • Usually because water was sitting somewhere it should have been running: a flat fall, a blocked valley, a lap that opened up, or a flashing that was directing water back under the sheet rather than over it. We fix the cause as well as the sheet.

  • When the corrosion is spread across multiple roof planes, or the fixings are failing generally, or you have already had it repaired more than once. At that point you are paying repeatedly for a roof that needs replacing.

  • No. We do not offer roof painting, restoration or sealing. We repair and replace metal roofs.
