Metal Roofing Sydney: Residential & Commercial Roofing Experts

City2Surf Roofing installs, repairs and replaces metal roofs for Sydney homes, strata properties and commercial buildings, backed by more than 30 years of roofing experience.

Why Choose Metal Roofing?

Metal roofing is a smart, modern choice for Sydney homes and commercial properties, offering a great balance of performance, longevity, and value.

Our Metal Roofing Services

As experienced roofing contractors in Sydney, we tailor every roof to your property’s design, structure and budget. We offer custom-tailored systems designed to match the specific architectural lines, structural requirements, and budget constraints of your project.

Metal Roof Installation

We provide metal roof installation in Sydney for new builds, extensions and material conversions, such as changing an old tile roof to modern steel. We help you choose the right material and profile, whether that’s Colorbond®, Zincalume®, corrugated, Trimdek® or standing seam. Every installation includes the parts you can’t see but that matter most: roof sarking, roof insulation, correct batten spacing and properly sealed roof flashings. All work is completed to the Building Code of Australia and Australian Standards.

Metal Roof Repairs

Even the toughest metal roof can wear over time from storms, salt air, poor past workmanship or a lack of maintenance. Our metal roof repairs in Sydney cover leaks, rust and corrosion, loose or failed fixings, damaged flashings, blocked or rusted gutters, and storm damage. We find the real cause of the problem rather than patching over it, and we use compatible materials so the repair lasts.

Metal Roof Replacement

When repairs are no longer worth it, a full metal roof replacement gives your property a fresh start. It’s a popular choice during home renovations, extensions or when an old roof is past its best. We safely remove the old roof, whether it’s tired tiles, rusted metal or old asbestos sheeting (removed by licensed asbestos removalists). Then we check and repair the roof frame and install new sarking, insulation and metal roofing. The result is a stronger, lighter and better-looking roof built for Sydney conditions.

Commercial Metal Roofing Sydney – Warehouses, Strata & Industrial Facilities

For a commercial property, roofing work can’t mean shutting the doors. Stock, equipment, tenants and day-to-day trading all depend on the building staying watertight and running while the work is underway. City2Surf Roofing plans every commercial metal roofing project around how your building is used. Repairs can often be completed with little to no interruption. Larger commercial roof replacements and roof re-sheeting are staged section by section, so most of your building can keep operating.

Commercial and industrial roofs need a different approach to homes. Large roof areas often use long-span metal roofing and low-pitch metal roofing, such as Klip-Lok® and other concealed-fix roofing profiles. These reduce leak points and allow for the expansion of long steel sheets. Drainage matters just as much. Box gutters and commercial gutters and downpipes must be sized to handle heavy Sydney downpours, so water doesn’t back up into the building. We also offer commercial roof inspections and ongoing commercial roof maintenance to help catch small problems before they become costly ones.

We work with property owners, facility managers, strata managers and builders across Greater Sydney:

Property Type	How We Help
Warehouses & industrial facilities	Large-span roof replacements, leak repairs and upgrades on sheds,factories and storage buildings
Strata & apartment buildings	Clear, itemised quotes and condition advice that owners corporations and strata committees can review and approve with confidence
Retail centres & office buildings	Repairs and replacements scheduled to keep disruption to tenants, staff and customers to a minimum
Schools & institutional facilities	Carefully staged works that put safety first and fit around operating hours and term calendars

How We Handle Metal Roofing in Sydney

Inspect

We check every part of your roof, including sheets, fixings, flashings, gutters, sarking and the roof frame. You’ll receive a photo report showing what we found and what needs attention.

For commercial buildings: we also check box gutters, outlets and overflows, roof penetrations and safety access, and note any areas that may need to be cleared during the works.

Quote

Your quote lists the materials, profile, labour, waste removal and safety equipment. We also explain whether a repair, part re-sheet or full replacement gives you the best value.

For commercial buildings: we include a staging plan and timeline, so strata committees, owners and facility managers can approve and budget with confidence.

Install or Repair

All work is done to the Building Code of Australia and the Australian Standard for metal roofing (AS 1562). We close in each section by the end of every day, so your property is never left open to the weather.

Enjoy Peace of Mind

We finish with a final quality check, a full site clean-up and a handover of your warranty paperwork. Genuine Colorbond® steel roofs can be eligible for BlueScope product warranties of up to 36 years, plus our own workmanship guarantee.

Our Metal Roofing Projects

Tile to Metal Roofing Brookvale

City2Surf Roofing was brought in to remove the ageing, failing concrete tiles on this existing complex. Several factors made tiles a poor fit for this location, so the decision was made to replace them with Colorbond® steel in the colour Basalt.

Metal Roofing Replacement in Croydon

Here’s another example of what’s possible with a leaking old roof. We replaced the valleys, repaired the slates and installed a new Colorbond® roof, so this family home is now set for decades to come.

Colorbond Ultra Metal Roof in Fairlight Sydney

Fairlight homes enjoy beautiful harbour views, but salt air from the water can take a toll on roofing over time. For this project, we stripped away the tired old tiles and installed a new Colorbond® Ultra steel roof in Monument. Colorbond® Ultra is a coastal-grade steel designed for properties close to the water, which makes it a smart choice for this harbourside location.

What Our Customers Say

Carl was very pleasant and helpful. The workmen did the job efficiently and quietly and continued nonstop until they were finished. All in all, it was a very positive experience, and I would not hesitate to recommend City2Surf Roofing to others.

– Catriona Stafford

Carl and Kinsley from City2Surf Roofing did an excellent job repairing my leaking roof. Their team of experienced roofers was polite, hard-working, and cleaned up the waste materials. The roof is now watertight, and we have no more leaks!

– Alex Mc

We are delighted with our repaired and retiled roof and highly recommend Carl and the City2Surf team. Their professionalism, experience, advice, responsiveness, and attention to detail ensured that we knew exactly what to expect and led to a very fast and efficient installation. The site was left clean and tidy, the old tiles and wooden battens were separated for recycling, and very little rubbish was destined for landfill. Thank you, Carl, it was a pleasure to deal with you again.

– Alison Edye

Carl from City2surf did an amazing job on our house, which needed a complex gutter/roof repair. He went above and beyond to solve our problem, which he has now completed successfully, to which we are very grateful. No more leaks anywhere. Carl was very professional and extremely easy to work with.

– Gail Tarrant

Despite being very busy ( it would be fair to assume they are in demand due to their quality service), I have always received the best of service from both the owner and each and all of his workers. Thank you.

– Jennifer Jones

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Colorbond® suitable for coastal Sydney homes?

Yes. Colorbond® steel performs well in most Sydney conditions. For properties very close to the ocean, we recommend coastal-grade options such as Colorbond® Ultra steel, which is designed to better resist salt air.

Is a metal roof noisy when it rains?

Not when it’s installed properly. We lay insulation blankets under the metal sheets, which absorb most of the sound from rain and wind and keep your home quiet.

How long does a metal roof replacement take?

Most home roof replacements take 3 to 7 days, depending on the size of the roof and the weather. Commercial projects vary with the roof area and staging, and we give you a clear timeline in your quote.

Can I stay at home during the work?

Usually, yes. We plan the work so your home stays safe and protected each day, and we let you know in advance if any areas need to be kept clear.

Can you install a skylight in a metal roof?

Yes. We can install skylights in new and existing metal roofs to bring more natural light into your home or building. Each skylight is fitted with purpose-made flashings and properly sealed to keep your roof watertight. Learn more about our skylight installations.

Can solar panels be installed on a metal roof?

Yes. Metal roofs are well suited to solar panels. Poorly sealed fixings from solar installation can cause leaks, so it’s worth having a roofer check the roof afterwards.

How often should a metal roof be inspected?

We recommend an inspection at least once a year and after any major storm. Coastal properties and commercial buildings may need more regular checks, as salt air and large roof areas can lead to faster wear.

Do you help with insurance claims for storm damage?

Yes. We can provide a detailed roof report with photos and documentation to support your insurance claim. A fee applies for this report.

How much does metal roofing cost in Sydney?

The cost depends on the size and pitch of your roof, the material and profile you choose, access to the site and whether you need a repair or full replacement. We provide free, itemised quotes so you know exactly what’s involved.
