Roofing FAQs
Your Questions Answered
Got questions about your roof? You’re not alone. Below are answers to the most common questions we receive from Brisbane homeowners.
General FAQs
How do I know if my roof needs restoring or just repairing?
A good rule of thumb: if more than 20–30% of your roof has problems — cracked or broken tiles, widespread moss growth, significant paint erosion or rust — a full roof restoration is usually more cost-effective than multiple individual repairs. If the issues are isolated — a few cracked tiles, a single leak, loose ridge capping — targeted roof repairs will suffice. Our team provides honest advice after a free inspection.
How long does a roof restoration take?
Most residential roof restorations take 2–4 days, depending on roof size, condition, and weather. We clean the roof on day one, carry out any structural repairs on day two, and apply coatings on days three and four. We’ll give you a clear timeline before we start.
What’s included in a roof restoration?
Our standard roof restoration includes: high-pressure cleaning, full repointing of ridge capping, replacement of damaged or broken tiles, sealing of flashings and valleys, and two coats of premium roof paint. Everything is covered in your written quote before work begins.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. We offer a 10-year warranty on all roof restorations. This covers both materials and workmanship. We use premium-grade coatings designed for Australian conditions, applied correctly by qualified tradespeople.
Cost and Quotes
How much does a roof restoration cost in Brisbane?
Costs vary based on roof size, pitch, condition, and material. As a general guide, a standard residential tile roof restoration in Brisbane typically ranges from $3,000 to $7,000+. The best way to get an accurate figure is to call us on (07) 3555 7516 for a free, no-obligation quote. We provide detailed written quotes with no hidden costs.
Is a free quote really free?
Absolutely. We come to you, inspect the roof, and provide a written quote at no cost and with no obligation. You’re free to take the quote and compare it with others — we’re confident our pricing and service quality will speak for themselves.
Can I get a quote over the phone or online?
We can provide ballpark estimates based on the information you provide, but for an accurate quote, we need to physically inspect the roof. Roof conditions vary enormously, and an on-site inspection ensures you’re quoted correctly — not underquoted and hit with extras later.
Process and Timing
How long after I call will you come out to quote?
We typically schedule free inspections within 1–3 business days of your call. During busy periods (especially post-storm), wait times can be slightly longer, but we always aim to be as prompt as possible.
Do I need to be home during the work?
You don’t need to be home during the roofing work itself, but we do ask that someone is available on the first morning to walk through the scope of work and answer any questions. We’ll keep you updated throughout and won’t leave without a final walk-through.
What areas do you service?
We service all of Greater Brisbane. See our locations page for the full list of suburbs. If you’re unsure whether we service your area, just call us on (07) 3555 7516.
Services and Materials
What type of roofs do you work on?
We work on tile roofs (concrete and terracotta), metal roofs (Colorbond, Zincalume, corrugated iron), slate roofs, and heritage roofs. We handle both residential and light commercial properties across Brisbane.
What roof paints and coatings do you use?
We use premium-grade acrylic roof coatings specifically formulated for Australian conditions. These products are UV-stable, mould-resistant, and flexible enough to cope with Queensland’s temperature fluctuations. We don’t use cheap products — our warranty depends on the quality of what goes on your roof.
Do you do gutters as well as the roof?
Yes. We offer a full range of gutter services including gutter cleaning, gutter repairs, gutter replacement, gutter guard installation, and downpipe replacement. Many of our customers have gutters and the roof done at the same time to save on call-out costs.
Can you install skylights?
Yes, we offer skylight installation and skylight repairs. Whether you want to add natural light to a dark room or fix an existing leaking skylight, our team can help.
