AfterWhat we're known for
A new Colorbond or Lysaght roof, or a full replacement of a roof that is past saving: these are the jobs we are asked about most. We also tell you when a repair or restoration is the better answer.
Colorbond and Lysaght steel, profiles and colours explained, with coastal grades where the site calls for them.
Remove a worn roof and replace it with new metal or tile, with sarking and fresh flashings.
Full service range
Gutters, gutter guard, storm damage and roof reports first, then restoration, repairs, new roofs, painting, cleaning, flashings, skylights and the harder jobs.
After a storm
Hail, wind and heavy rain hit Newcastle roofs in bursts. We can inspect the roof, make it safe where that is possible, and prepare a written storm damage report for your insurer. Tell us when you book what your insurer has asked for, and we will explain what the report can cover.
Which option do I need?
Most roofs need one of these four. The honest answer depends on the condition of your tiles or sheets, which is what a free on-site inspection tells you.
Best for
A sound roof with one problem: a leak, a few cracked tiles, a lifted sheet or a failed flashing.
Best for
Tiles that are sound but tired: failing ridge mortar, lichen, a faded coating and scattered cracked tiles.
Best for
Metal sheets with surface rust and faded paint, but no rust holes through the steel.
Best for
A roof past restoring: tiles or sheets failing across the roof, rust holes, or a tile roof you want to replace with Colorbond.
Guide ranges only, from a September 2026 Newcastle market guide by whatsthedamage.com.au (modelled estimates, not our quotes). Roof size, pitch and access, material, condition, repairs needed and the coating system all move the price, and a metal roof is not necessarily cheaper than tile. Your exact price is confirmed in writing after an on-site inspection.
Local roofs, local conditions
A roof a few streets from the surf lives a different life from one on a sheltered street in the western suburbs. Salt air works on exposed fixings, flashings and unprotected steel; the southerly storms and summer hail find every cracked tile and tired ridge; heavy rain tests whether the gutters and valleys can keep up. The city's housing adds its own variety: Victorian and Federation terraces, post-war brick veneer with concrete or terracotta tiles, and newer Colorbond homes. We look at your roof, your exposure and your material before recommending anything.

Straight answers
For a tile roof: a pressure clean, replacing cracked or broken tiles, rebedding and repointing the ridge capping, then a primer and coating system. For a metal roof: a clean, treating surface rust, replacing worn screws and fixings, then priming and recoating. It suits roofs that are sound underneath but worn on top.
A repair suits a sound roof with a single fault: a leak, a few cracked tiles or a failed flashing. Restoration suits widespread wear on a roof that is still structurally sound. Replacement is the answer when metal is rusted through, tiles are failing across the roof, or the battens and sarking underneath have given out.
A September 2026 Newcastle market guide from whatsthedamage.com.au puts most complete tile roof restorations between $3,800 and $10,450 and most metal roof restorations between $2,850 and $5,700 (modelled estimates, not our quotes). Size, pitch, access, condition, repairs and the coating system move the price. Yours is confirmed in writing after an on-site inspection.
Most house restorations take a few working days on the roof, spread over about a week because coatings need dry weather and curing time between coats. Larger, steeper or more damaged roofs take longer, and rain pauses the job.
Salt spray settles on the roof and attacks exposed steel, fixings and flashings, and it is harsher the closer a home sits to the surf or the harbour. It does not mean every coastal roof is failing, but it is why we check fixings and cut edges closely on exposed homes and match steel grades to the site.
Ask for a written quote that lists the scope item by item, what warranty applies and to what, and who will do the work. Ask for photos of the problems they found. Check licence and insurance details directly with the contractor and confirm them against the NSW Fair Trading public register.
How it works
Tell us what you are seeing: a leak, cracked tiles, rust, or just an old roof. We book a time that suits you, Monday to Saturday.
We get on the roof, check tiles or sheets, ridges, flashings, valleys, gutters and the roof space where we can.
Repair, restore or replace. If a repair will do, we say so. If a roof is past restoring, we say that too.
Scheduled around the weather, with the site kept tidy and the roof made watertight at the end of each day.
We check the finished roof with you and go through the 10-year workmanship warranty.

Great job done and am very happy with the results. Found this business very easy to deal with and felt they had my best interests at heart.
Great job done by this company, highly recommend Dave and Daniel, we could not be happier with how good it turned out. Wayne & Tracie
I recently had my tile roof repaired and re sprayed by your wonderful boys, Dave and Daniel. The house is a homestead style, 40 years old and the batons on the verandah area had rotted, causing severe leaking through the tiles with over 100 broken tiles causing the leaks. Dave and Daniel removed all the tiles and replaced all the batons, then sourced the very hard to come by replacement tiles in some days well over 30 degrees. They then did a wonderful job putting very strong gutter mesh on gutters, repaired leaking gutters then once all this was done, ensured roof was fully waterproofed, cleaned the roof then spray painted this. At completion of every day, everything was cleaned up. Wonderful job, very reasonably priced and dealing with such gentleman as Dave and Daniel was a real pleasure. Cannot recommend this business more highly, thankyou to the boys.
Knows his stuff and job was done and completed as he estimated.😊

It depends on what is under the surface. Concrete and terracotta tiles that are mostly sound, with tired ridge mortar and a faded surface, usually restore well. Metal with surface rust restores well; metal rusted through, or a roof with rotten battens and widespread leaks, is usually better replaced. We tell you which after looking at it, with photos.
Yes. Free on-site inspection and a free quote for roofing work. Specialist written reports, such as pre-purchase, strata or commercial roof reports, are a separate service and we will tell you the cost before booking one.
Yes. We restore, repair and replace concrete tile, terracotta tile and metal roofs, and install new metal and tile roofs on new builds and extensions. We supply Colorbond and Lysaght steel for metal roofing, gutters and flashings.
We offer a 10-year workmanship warranty. It covers workmanship, not materials. Materials and coatings carry their own manufacturer warranties, which we explain where they apply.
Yes. After a storm we can make the roof safe where possible and prepare a written storm damage report describing what we found and, where the roof shows it, the likely cause. Your insurer decides the claim; our report gives them clear evidence to assess.
