New Roof Installations & Replacement Brisbane

When replacement is the right call

We usually talk people out of replacement when repair or restoration will do the job. So if we're recommending a new roof, the reasons are concrete: widespread rust-through, tiles crumbling at the edges, structural batten damage, or a renovation where the roof is the weak link.

What we install

• Colorbond steel, the Brisbane standard: light, durable, cyclonic-rated fixing, 20-plus colours including the Matt range
• Tile-to-Colorbond conversions, our most common re-roof: drops tonnes of weight off an old frame and ends tile maintenance for good
• New concrete and terracotta tile roofs, where tile is the right look for the build
• Full roof system replacement, battens, sarking, insulation, gutters and downpipes as one job, not five contractors

What a proper re-roof involves

Strip-off with safety rail and site protection. Frame and batten inspection, with timber repairs quoted before we go further. New sarking and insulation to current standards. Sheets or tiles fixed to cyclonic rating with class-4 fasteners. New flashings, valleys and cappings, never reused. Gutters sized for Brisbane storm intensity. Then a site clean that includes a magnetic sweep for screws and nails across the driveway and lawn.

The numbers

A full tile-to-Colorbond conversion on a standard Brisbane home typically runs $15,000 to $30,000 depending on size, pitch, access and frame repairs. It's a real number, which is why we start by checking whether a $5,000 restoration gets you the same result.
