We provide a 10 year guarantee on all roof restorations.

We’ve been restoring roofs in Melbourne for over 30 years and we’re proud of what we do.

Roof Repointing

This involves replacing the mortar between tiles, which can become loose or cracked over time. This improves water resistance and the overall stability of the roof.
Timber Baton Replacement

The battens are the wooden supports under the tiles. Damaged or rotten battens compromise the structural integrity of the roof and need replacement.
Waterproof Sarking Installation

Sarking is a waterproof membrane installed underneath the tiles. A new sarking layer can be necessary if the existing one is damaged or missing, providing an extra layer of protection from water infiltration.
Gutter Cleaning & Replacement

Regular gutter cleaning removes debris that can block water flow. Damaged or overflowing gutters need replacement to ensure proper drainage and prevent water damage to your home.

Damaged Tile Replacement

Upgrading your roof to replace individual broken, cracked, or missing tiles to maintain a watertight roof surface which looks great.
Ridge Capping Replacement

The ridge capping covers the peak of the roof. Cracked or broken ridge capping allows water infiltration and needs to be replaced to ensure proper sealing.
Roof Painting

Roof painting doesn't just improve aesthetics. A specialised roof paint creates a protective layer that enhances weather resistance and extends the lifespan of the tiles.
Roof Inspections

Regular roof inspections are crucial for early detection of any potential problems like leaks, damaged tiles, or failing components. Early intervention can prevent costly repairs down the line.

What people are saying about Metropolitan Roof Repairs

Metropolitan Roof Repairs came recommended to us because of their extensive work on heritage buildings and their good reputation. We have used Metropolitan roof repairs for a number of our roof projects from repairs to replacement and from slate to terracotta and also for a metal roof on the extension. They have never let us down. Their knowledge and expertise in roofing is extensive, they are very skilled and reliable. We wont use anyone else.

Steve and his team from metropolitan roof repairs Kew installed my new Spanish Del Carmen slate roof at my house in Southyarra. Highly recommended them one of the best roofing companies in Melbourne he kept me updated throughout the entire process.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between roof repair and roof restoration?

Roof restoration goes beyond just fixing leaks. It’s a comprehensive overhaul that addresses existing issues such as damaged tiles or failing mortar, adds preventative measures such as waterproof membranes and improved ventilation, and rejuvenates your roof with repointing and painting. This extends your roof’s lifespan, improves its performance, and enhances your home’s curb appeal and value.

What does roof restoration include?

A typical roof restoration includes a thorough inspection, repairs to address leaks and damaged components, preventative measures like installing sarking and improving ventilation, and improvements like repointing and a fresh coat of paint.

How do I know if my roof needs restoration or just repairs?

Signs your roof may need restoration include curling or cracked shingles, leaks, visible moss growth, or a noticeable decline in energy efficiency. For minor leaks or damaged tiles, repairs might suffice. However, if you see widespread issues or your roof is nearing the end of its lifespan (around 15-20 years for some materials), restoration is a better long-term solution.

How much does roof restoration cost?

The cost of roof restoration varies depending on the size and condition of your roof, the materials used, and the complexity of the job. Generally, roof restoration can range from $3,000 to $12,000 for an average-sized home. For a more accurate estimate, we can provide you an obligation free inspection and consultation.
