Full roof replacement across Perth, tile and metal. The old roof comes off and goes away, the new one goes on with proper weatherproofing and insulation, the gutters and downpipes get brought into line with it, and the whole job is quoted itemised up front. We only recommend it when restoring genuinely will not hold.
This is the question worth getting right, because the gap between the two answers is thousands of dollars. Here is how we call it, and we call it before you spend anything.
If the structure underneath is sound and the tiles or sheets are largely intact, restoration costs a fraction of replacement and buys the roof many more years. Clean, replace the broken tiles, re-bed and re-point the ridges, seal and coat it.
Most Perth roofs that look finished are actually in this camp. Restoring one is our main line of work, and it is the first thing we check for.
When the structure is no longer sound, or the sheets and tiles have gone past saving across the whole roof, coating it is money spent on a roof that will fail anyway. We will say so rather than take the easier job.
Replacement is the bigger spend and the longer answer: a new roof, new weatherproofing, and a house you are not thinking about again for a very long time.
Six stages, and you get told where the job is at each one. No home is quite the same, so the plan is written for your roof rather than pulled off a shelf.
We go over the whole roof and identify everything that needs replacing, then tell you straight whether it is a re-roof or whether a restoration would do. That answer comes before any quote.
Tile or metal, profile and colour, chosen to suit the house rather than whatever is quickest to get. You see the itemised quote covering every part of the job before anything is ordered.
The existing roof is carefully dismantled and disposed of. Careful matters here: the house is open while this is happening, so the work is staged and the site kept safe.
With the roof off, the weatherproofing and insulation layers go in properly. This is the part nobody sees once the new roof is on, and the part that decides whether the house stays dry and comfortable.
New roofing materials fitted with the care they were paid for, and the gutters and downpipes brought into line with the new roof so the whole system drains as one.
Safety and building regulation checks, then the site gets cleaned up and we walk the finished job with you. You are dealing with the same people at the end that you dealt with at the quote.
A full roof replacement in Perth commonly starts around $20,000 and rises from there with size, pitch, access and the material you choose. That gap against a restoration, which runs $4,000 to $9,000 on a typical three to four bedroom home, is exactly why we check whether restoring will do the job first. When it will, we say so.
Our guarantee covers defects in our materials and workmanship for 15 years from the day the job is finished. Plain terms, on our warranty page.
We work right across the Perth metro, north and south of the river. These suburbs have a page of their own: South Perth, Applecross, Ascot, Baldivis, Canning Vale, Joondalup, Midland, Wanneroo. If yours is not listed we almost certainly still get there, so ask and we will tell you straight away.
"Mati and Ryan did a fantastic job and I can't believe how wonderful my roof looks! Tiles replaced, ridge capping repaired, painted and sealed, plus extra jobs done at the last minute!"
"Awesome job. Great at communications and really looks after his clients. Rare to find people who will do their job and provide proper support these days. Killi is definitely one of them."
"Mati and his team did a great job on my roof. He was so busy but promised he would have it done by Christmas and he did. So happy with his work. Would highly recommend this company."
If the structure underneath is sound and the tiles or sheets are largely intact, restoration is the cheaper and sensible answer. If the structure has gone, or the roof has failed across the whole surface, coating it is money spent on a roof that will fail anyway. The free onsite assessment settles it, and we will tell you which one you are looking at even when it is the smaller job.
It commonly starts around $20,000 and rises with the size and pitch of the roof, how hard it is to access and the material you choose. Your exact number comes from an itemised quote after we have been on the roof, not over the phone.
Yes. The old roof is dismantled carefully and disposed of, and the site gets cleaned up at the end. You are not left with a pile of old tiles in the yard.
They get brought into line with the new roof, so the gutters and downpipes work with it rather than against it. It is the sensible time to sort them, since access is already there.
Yes. Safety and building regulation checks are part of the job, not an afterthought, and the work is staged so the house is not left exposed.
We come out, get on the roof and tell you whether it needs replacing or whether a restoration will do. If restoring will hold, that is what we will quote, and it is the cheaper job.
