Reduce roof load and update street appeal.

Built for Sydney weather

Selected profiles and fixings to handle storms and heat.

Bushfire aware (BAL)

Your chosen roofer will check BAL requirements for your address.

Low-maintenance materials

Modern metal systems with integrated sarking/insulation options.

Structural & weight

Switching from tiles to metal usually means fewer loads on trusses and rafters, plus new battens and sarking as part of the re‑roof. Your selected roofer verifies all structure on‑site before works and confirms the final scope.
