"Another company quoted a full restoration. These guys inspected and said the tiles and coating were fine — it only needed repointing and a dozen tiles. Saved us thousands by quoting what the roof actually needed. That kind of honesty gets remembered."

What Are You Seeing on Your Roof?
Pick the issue that looks closest to yours. We'll explain what's usually behind it, inspect the damage for free, and point you to the right fix — repair first, replacement only when it's warranted.
Water stain on the ceiling
A brown ring or damp patch after rain means water is already inside. We trace the leak on the roof, not just where it drips.
Roof repairsCracked or slipped tiles
Visible from the driveway or found during an inspection — broken tiles let water at the sarking and battens beneath.
Tile roof repairsRusted metal or screws
Rust streaks around screw heads, lifting sheet edges or corroded valleys — common on bayside and older iron roofs.
Metal roof repairsCrumbling ridge mortar
Cracked pointing and rocking ridge caps are the first thing a storm removes. Rebedding and repointing puts that right.
Roof repointingFaded, chalky roof
Concrete tiles gone porous and patchy grey drink water instead of shedding it. A full restoration resets the clock.
Roof restorationStorm or hail damage
Holes, lifted sheets or hail fractures after a cell comes through. Make-safe first, documentation for your insurer next.

Read moreAbout Us
Inspection First. Honest Always.
Brisbane roofs are their own trade. Pre-war corrugated iron on highset Queenslanders in Paddington, fretting concrete tiles across the northside brick-and-tile belt, salt-eaten fasteners at Wynnum, leaf-choked valleys under the gum canopy in The Gap — the fault pattern changes suburb by suburb, and the fix should too.
That's why every job here starts on the roof, not at the kitchen table with a contract. We inspect, photograph what we find, and give you honest options based on urgency, budget and how long you're staying in the house.
- Free roof inspection with a photo report you keep either way
- Honest repair-versus-replace advice — we don't push replacements when a repair will hold
- Itemised written quotes, so you can compare scope line by line
- QBCC-licensed work with a written workmanship warranty

Customer Reviews
Trusted When It Matters Most
What Brisbane homeowners say about the inspections, the repairs and the paperwork — read more reviews.
"Full restoration on our 90s concrete tile roof — pressure clean, about 30 tiles replaced, full rebed and repoint, then the primer and two membrane coats. Took four days. The difference is honestly startling, and the quote didn't move a dollar from the written one. $6,400 for a big hip roof felt fair against the other quotes."
"Leak over the bedroom during the February storms — water coming through the cornice at 9pm. They talked us through catching it that night, were on the roof next morning, found two cracked tiles and a slipped one under the solar panel rail. Fixed same visit, $480 all up. Photos of everything before and after."
"November hailstorm put holes in a dozen tiles and took a run of ridge caps off. They tarped and battened the exposed section next morning — proper make-safe, not a sheet flapping in the wind — then prepared the scope with photos for our insurer. Claim approved without argument. Permanent repair done three weeks later."

Still wondering about something? Browse the full FAQ →
Do you charge for inspections and quotes?
No. Roof inspections and quotes are free across the Brisbane metro area, and we photograph everything we find — cracked tiles, failed pointing, rusted valleys — so you can see what we're quoting on without climbing a ladder yourself. The photo report is yours to keep whether you book with us or not.What happens after I request a quote?
We respond within business hours with a booking for a free inspection — usually within 48 hours, faster for active leaks. On the day: full walk of the roof, photos of every defect, then a written itemised quote emailed the same day or next morning. No sign-on-the-spot pressure, no 'today only' pricing. You compare, ask questions, and book when you're ready.How much does a roof restoration cost in Brisbane?
A full restoration on a typical 3-bedroom Brisbane home — pressure clean, replace broken tiles, rebed and repoint the ridge capping, then a primer and two membrane coats — lands between $3,500 and $8,000. The spread comes down to roof size and pitch, how much repointing is needed, and access (a highset Queenslander on a steep block costs more to scaffold than a lowset brick home in Calamvale). Every quote is itemised in writing before any work starts.How quickly can you get to me after a storm?
Make-safes are triaged by severity: active water ingress into living areas comes first, damaged-but-dry roofs second. In a normal week we can inspect within 48 hours anywhere in the metro. After a major hail event the whole city is calling at once — we still respond in order of urgency, and a battened tarp buys weeks of protection while the permanent repair is scheduled, so nobody is left with water coming in while they wait.Do I need a licensed roofer in Queensland?
For any roofing work valued over $3,300 including materials and labour, yes — Queensland law requires the contractor to hold the appropriate QBCC licence, and unlicensed contracting over that threshold is an offence. That covers effectively every restoration, repaint and replacement. Below the threshold licensing isn't mandatory for all work, but an unlicensed operator also can't offer you the statutory protections that come with licensed work.What warranty do I get on the work?
A written workmanship warranty on every job — get this in writing from any roofer you use; a verbal 'we'll look after you' is worth nothing three years later. On restorations, the membrane coating systems we apply carry manufacturer product warranties of 10-15 years when applied per spec over a properly prepared surface, which is exactly why we don't skip the preparation. Warranty documents are emailed with your final invoice.Which Brisbane suburbs do you cover?
The whole Brisbane metro: northside from Albany Creek and Bracken Ridge through Aspley, Boondall and Ascot; inner city including Paddington, New Farm, Ashgrove and West End; the western suburbs out through The Gap, Kenmore and Indooroopilly; southside through Sunnybank, Calamvale, Algester and Eight Mile Plains; and the eastern corridor from Carindale and Tingalpa out to Wynnum and Capalaba.

A few cracked tiles are a cheap fix. A pattern of cracking can mean hail damage, bad foot traffic or a roof at end of life. Here's how to tell the difference, what repairs should look like, and rough costs for each path.
