Replace the Roof That Keeps Letting You Down

There comes a point where another repair is money spent on a roof that has run out of life. Rust has spread across the sheets, the same leak comes back every winter, or the old tiles keep cracking and slipping.

We're a licensed roof plumbing business based in Reservoir, and with more than 15 years in the roof plumbing industry we replace roofs on homes right across Melbourne's north and north-east. That covers full metal re-roofs, tile to metal changeovers and replacing old, rusted metal roofs with new Colorbond.

Why Choose MRT

Roof Replacements Backed by 15+ Years of Experience

A new roof is a big investment, and the difference between a good one and an average one is in the details you can't see from the street. The flashings around walls and chimneys, the way the sheets are set out and how the roof drains into the gutters all decide how well it holds up.

Matt, who owns and leads MRT, has more than 15 years in the roof plumbing industry, and our small team works to the same standard on every replacement. We use quality Colorbond roofing, help you choose a colour that suits the house and keep you updated until the new roof is finished.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • It usually comes down to how widespread the problems are. A single leak or damaged flashing can often be repaired, while widespread rust, repeated leaks or an ageing roof that keeps needing work may be better replaced. We'll look at your roof and talk you through the options when we quote.

  • Every roof is different, so we quote each job individually. The size and shape of the roof, the existing roofing material, access, the profile and colour you choose and any gutter or fascia work all affect the price. Contact us for a free quote.

Roof Replacement Options Explained

Most roof replacements fall into one of three situations. Here is how they differ, so you can find the right service for your home.

Re-Roofing

Re-roofing replaces the existing roof covering with a new metal roof. It suits homes where the roof has aged to the point that repairs keep coming back, or where you want one fresh, consistent finish across the whole house.

Tile to Metal Roof Replacement

Moving from tiles to metal swaps hundreds of individual tiles for long metal sheets and gives the house a cleaner, more contemporary look. It is a popular choice when an existing tiled roof is tired and you would rather move to metal than keep maintaining it.

Old and Rusted Metal Roof Replacement

Metal roofs last a long time, but older sheets can rust, wear thin and start leaking around fixings and laps. Once corrosion has spread across the roof, new sheets are usually more practical than chasing one repair after another.

When a Repair Is the Better Fit

Not every roof problem needs a full replacement. If the issue is limited to one leak, a damaged flashing or a small section of roof, a targeted repair may be all you need.

New Gutters and Fascia With Your Roof

A roof replacement is a good time to look at the gutters, fascia and downpipes too. Replacing them together gives the roofline one matching finish and a drainage system that suits the new roof.
