What's included

What a roof repaint involves.

Roofs take the worst of Melbourne's sun, rain and wind. A repaint only lasts if the surface underneath is clean, sound and properly primed, so most of the work happens before the colour goes on.

01

Concrete and terracotta tiles

Tile roofs are cleaned of dirt, moss and lichen, then sealed and coated so the colour is even and the surface is protected from the weather.

02

Metal roofs

Metal roofing is cleaned, and any surface rust or failing paint is treated and primed with a product suited to metal before the top coats.

03

Inspection before coating

We look for cracked tiles, rust, loose ridge capping and other issues while we're up there, and tell you what needs fixing before any coating goes on.

04

Colour and finish

Choose a colour that suits the house and street. Lighter roof colours can reflect more heat, which is worth considering in Melbourne summers.

Pricing guidance

What affects the cost.

The main things that affect the cost of painting a roof are its size and pitch, the roof type (tile or metal), how much cleaning and preparation it needs, access and height, and the number of coats.

Roof work is weather-dependent, so the timeframe can move with the forecast. After a free inspection we send a written, itemised quote, so you know exactly what is and isn't included.

Helpful answers

Questions homeowners ask.

Can every roof be painted?

Most concrete tile, terracotta and metal roofs can be recoated. We'll tell you at the inspection if a roof's condition means it needs repairs before painting.

How long does a roof repaint take?

It depends on the size of the roof, its condition and the weather. Roof coatings need dry conditions, so we schedule around the forecast and confirm a realistic timeframe.

Will painting my roof stop leaks?

Paint isn't a repair for leaks. If we see signs of cracked tiles, rust holes or loose capping, we'll point them out so they can be fixed before coating.

Do you clean the gutters as well?

We protect gutters and downpipes during the job and leave the site clean. Tell us if you'd like gutters included in the quote.

Do you give free roof painting quotes?

Yes. Call 0452 219 991 to book a free inspection, or email photos of the roof to get started.
