Can a rusted roof be repaired, or does it need replacing?

It depends on how far the rust has spread. Rust in one area can often be dealt with by replacing the affected sheets and flashings, but rust that has eaten through sheets across the roof usually means a full replacement. We'll look and tell you which applies.

Do you service Macleod?

Yes. Macleod is part of our City of Banyule service area, and we work there on roof replacements, repairs, gutters, cladding and new roofs.

Should I replace the gutters at the same time as the roof?

It's often worth it. Gutters tend to rust alongside an old roof, so replacing them together saves a second job later and gives you matching Colorbond gutters and downpipes.

Can you replace an old tiled roof too?

Yes. Tile to metal roof replacement is one of our services. We remove the tiles and install a new Colorbond metal roof in the colour you choose.

A New Roof When Rust Has Taken Hold

Rust spots, flaking sheets and leaks that come back after every repair are all signs an old metal roof is wearing out. In more than 15 years in the roof plumbing industry, we've seen plenty of roofs reach that point, and our licensed team in Reservoir replaces them for Macleod homeowners.

Depending on the damage, that can mean a full replacement in new Colorbond metal or a targeted repair where the rust is limited to one area. We also install roofs on new homes and extensions, replace gutters and downpipes, and fit metal cladding.

New Metal Roofs in Macleod

If you're knocking down and rebuilding or adding a new wing, a metal roof puts far less weight on the frame than tiles. We install Colorbond roofing onto new frames and extensions and finish the ridges, flashings and gutters to suit the design.

Rusted Roof Replacement in Macleod

Once rust has spread across an old metal roof, patching individual holes tends to be a short-term fix. We strip the old sheets and replace them with new Colorbond metal, and we carry out full re-roofs for roofs that are worn rather than rusted.

Roof Repairs and Maintenance in Macleod

Not every rusty roof needs replacing. When the damage is contained, we carry out leak repairs on the affected sections and replace failing flashings, and roof maintenance helps you spot the next problem before it spreads.

Replacing Rusted Gutters in Macleod
