## What's included in metal roof restoration?

A metal roof restoration deals with what wears out first on a Queensland metal roof: rust, failed screws and a faded, chalky finish. We clean the roof, treat rust, replace failed screws and fix lifted sheets, then prime and recoat the roof in the colour you choose. Done before the rust goes through the sheets, it adds years to the roof for far less than replacing it. We restore metal and Colorbond roofs across the Gold Coast, Brisbane and Logan, and the Tweed and Northern Rivers.

- Cleaning of the whole roof
- Rust treated before it spreads
- Failed and rusted screws replaced
- Lifted sheets refixed and worn flashings repaired
- Primed and recoated in the colour you choose

## Signs your metal roof needs a roof restoration

Rust spots around screws and laps, screws that have rusted or backed out, a faded or chalky finish, and sheets that lift or rattle in the wind.

Close to the coast, salt air speeds this up, so the earlier the rust is treated, the more of the roof can be kept.

## How we restore a metal or Colorbond roof

1. Clean the roof and check every sheet, screw and flashing.

2. Treat rust, replace failed screws and refix lifted sheets.

3. Prime and recoat the roof in the colour you choose.

4. Walk you through the finished roof and what was done.

## How much does a metal roof restoration cost?

Metal and Colorbond roof restorations usually sit between $5,000 and $12,000, depending on how much surface preparation and rust treatment is needed.

A focused repair, like replacing failed screws or refixing a few sheets, is commonly $350 to $1,500 if that's all the roof needs.

## Restore or replace your metal roof?

Restoring is right when the rust is on the surface and around the fixings and the sheets are still sound.

When rust has eaten through the sheets across much of the roof, a coating won't hold, and replacing those sheets or the roof is the honest answer. We check before we quote and tell you which it is.

## A clear next step for your roof.

What happens, in order, once you tell us about your roof. You know what we're checking, what the quote covers and when the work happens before anything starts.

1. **Send your enquiry.** Tell us your suburb, the roof type and what you've noticed. Photos taken safely from the ground help, and are optional.
2. **We assess your roof.** We check the roof's material, condition, pitch and access. If we need to visit, we arrange a time with you.
3. **Scope and quote.** Our quote sets out the areas, repairs, preparation and finish included, with any exclusions and possible changes made clear.
4. **Schedule the roof restoration.** We agree access, weather and timing with you before work starts, so you know exactly what happens and when.

## Questions before you get started?

Here are the questions we hear most, so you know what to expect.

### Can you paint a Colorbond roof?

Yes. It's cleaned, rust is treated, failed screws are replaced, and it's primed before the new colour goes on.

### Do you replace roof screws?

Yes. Rusted and failed screws are replaced as part of the roof restoration.

### Is salt air a problem for metal roofs near the coast?

It speeds up rust, so coastal metal roofs benefit from earlier rust treatment and recoating.

### Can you fix a metal roof that leaks?

Yes. Most metal roof leaks come from failed screws, lifted sheets or worn flashings, and we fix the cause.
