Roof Replacement Perth

Full roof replacements across the Perth metro area. Tile-to-Colorbond conversions, asbestos removal, and complete re-roofs by a licensed local contractor.

When A Full Roof Replacement Makes Sense

Patching a roof has limits. Once a roof reaches a certain age, or the underlying structure starts to show its wear, ongoing repairs stop being economical. A full roof replacement resets the clock, restores weatherproofing, and adds significant value to the property. Perth Re-Roofing handles complete roof replacements across the metro area. We specialise in tile-to-Colorbond conversions, asbestos roof removal, and like-for-like replacements on older homes. Every job is fully licensed, insured, and backed by manufacturer warranties on materials.

Signs Your Roof Needs Replacing, Not Repairing

Persistent Leaks

If you’ve patched the same area more than once, or new leaks keep appearing in different spots, the underlying membrane and battens are likely past their service life.

Cracked Or Slipping Tiles

Widespread tile damage, brittle cement pointing, or visibly sagging sections usually indicate the roof structure has reached the end of its useful life.

Asbestos Sheeting

Older Perth homes often still have asbestos cement roofs. These need professional removal and replacement, not repair.

Rusted Or Corroded Metal

Older Zincalume or galvanised roofs that show widespread rust, especially around fixings and overlaps, are usually beyond economical repair.

Sagging Roofline

Visible dips or waves in the roofline point to structural issues with battens or rafters that a repair won’t fix.

Repair Costs Stacking Up

If you’re spending thousands every couple of years on patch repairs, that money is better invested in a full replacement that gives you decades of peace of mind.

What’s Involved In A Full Roof Replacement

A complete roof replacement is more than just swapping the surface material. Here’s what a proper job looks like:
  • Site inspection and quote – we assess the existing roof, structure, and any access or compliance considerations before pricing the work.
  • Material selection – Colorbond steel in your choice of profile and colour.
  • Stripping the existing roof – removal and lawful disposal of old tiles, sheets, or asbestos material.
  • Structural check and batten upgrade – replacing or upgrading battens where needed to meet current standards.
  • Sarking and insulation – reflective foil sarking for thermal performance and condensation control.
  • New roof installation – laid, flashed, and fixed to manufacturer specification.
  • Gutters, downpipes, and flashings – replaced or refurbished as part of the job where required.
  • Site clean-up and final inspection – we leave the property clean and walk through the completed work with you.

Tile To Colorbond Conversions

One of the most common roof replacement jobs we do is converting an old tile roof to Colorbond steel. The benefits are significant:
  • Lighter weight reduces load on the structure
  • Far better weatherproofing in Perth’s storm season
  • Lower long-term maintenance compared to tile and pointing
  • Modern profile and colour options that lift the look of older homes
  • Compatible with rainwater tanks and solar systems
We handle the structural assessment, battening changes, and full installation as one job.

Asbestos Roof Replacement

Many Perth homes built before the late 1980s still have asbestos cement roofs. These require licensed removal and proper disposal, not patch repairs. We’re fully licensed for asbestos roof removal and handle the entire process: containment, removal, lawful disposal, structural prep, and installation of the new Colorbond roof.
