Roof Replacement Steps

Step 1:
Initial Consultation

Every roof replacement begins with a conversation. We discuss your concerns, inspect your current roof, and determine whether a replacement is the best long-term solution. We also answer any questions about roofing materials, colours, timelines and costs.

Step 2:
Comprehensive Roof Inspection

Our experienced roofing specialists carry out a detailed inspection to identify:

  • Damaged or deteriorated roofing materials
  • Structural concerns
  • Roof leaks and water damage
  • Ventilation issues
  • Flashing and gutter condition
  • Signs of storm, hail or weather damage

This inspection allows us to recommend the most suitable roofing solution for your property.

Step 3:
Detailed Written Quote

You'll receive a transparent, itemised quotation outlining:

  • Scope of work
  • Roofing materials
  • Labour costs
  • Project timeline
  • Warranty information
  • Optional upgrades

There are no hidden costs or unexpected surprises.

Step 4:
Material Selection

We help you choose roofing materials that suit your home's style, budget and Queensland's climate.

Our roofing options include:

  • Colorbond® roofing
  • Metal roofing
  • Tile roofing
  • Polycarbonate roofing
  • Roof insulation upgrades
  • Roof ventilation improvements

We'll explain the benefits of each option so you can make an informed decision.

Step 5:
Project Planning

Before work begins, we coordinate every aspect of the project, including:

  • Ordering materials
  • Ordering specific Height Access equipment, such as Scaffold or Scissor Lift
  • Ordering Safety Rail where required
  • Scheduling other contractors such as Electrical if we are working near your power coming into the home
  • Scheduling installation
  • Site safety planning
  • Waste removal process and requirements

Our goal is to minimise disruption while keeping your property safe and tidy.

Step 6:
Solar Panels and Solar Hot Water System

If your home has solar panels or a solar hot water system installed, these will need to be addressed before your roof replacement can begin.

Solar Panels
Solar panels cannot remain on the roof during a roof replacement. If your solar panel removal and reinstallation is included in your quotation, our team will safely coordinate the disconnection, removal, storage and reinstallation of the solar system using qualified professionals. If solar panel removal is not included in your quotation, you'll need to arrange for a licensed solar installer or electrician to disconnect and remove the system before our scheduled installation date. Once your new roof has been completed, your solar installer can reinstall and reconnect the system. We'll clearly discuss these requirements during the quoting process so there are no unexpected delays.

Solar Hot Water Systems
If your property has a solar hot water system mounted on the roof, it will also need to be removed before roofing work can commence. Depending on your quotation, we can either coordinate the removal and reinstallation with qualified trades or you may need to arrange this through your own licensed plumber. Once your new roof has been installed, the solar hot water system can be reinstalled and recommissioned to ensure it operates safely and efficiently.

Step 7:
Safe Removal of your Existing Roof

Our qualified roofing team carefully removes the existing roof using industry-approved safety procedures. Old roofing materials are removed from site and disposed of responsibly wherever possible.

Step 8:
Roof Structure Inspection

Once the roof has been removed, we inspect the roof frame, battens and supporting structure. If damaged timber or structural issues are identified, we discuss repair options before installing the new roof. This ensures your investment is built on a strong, compliant foundation.

Step 9:
Installation of your New Roof

Our licensed roofing professionals install your new roof in accordance with Australian Standards and manufacturer specifications.

This includes:

  • New metal roof sheeting or tiles
  • Roof sarking where applicable
  • Flashings
  • Ridge capping
  • Roof ventilation / Whirly Birds
  • Valleys
  • Fasteners and fixings
  • If outlined in your quote installation of Gutters and downpipes if included

Every component is installed with precision to maximise durability and weather protection.

Step 10:
Quality Assurance Inspection

Our licensed roofing professionals install your new roof in accordance with Australian Standards and manufacturer specifications.

This includes:

  • New metal roof sheeting or tiles
  • Roof sarking where applicable
  • Flashings
  • Ridge capping
  • Roof ventilation / Whirly Birds
  • Valleys
  • Fasteners and fixings
  • If outlined in your quote installation of Gutters and downpipes if included

Every component is installed with precision to maximise durability and weather protection.

Step 11:
Complete Site Clean-Up

We leave your property clean by:

  • Removing all construction waste
  • Sweeping work areas
  • Collecting nails with magnetic equipment
  • Clearing gutters where required
  • Removing all roofing debris

Respecting your property is an important part of our service.

Step 12:
