Re-Roofing

Action Roofing are re-roofing specialist and can assist you in choosing the roof tile or metal roof profile to suit your existing roof.

Tiles remain the most popular form of roofing material in developed countries today, and with good reason. Natural thermal and structural properties underpin the enduring success of Australia’s two main varieties of Terracotta and Concrete.

When a tile roof deteriorates it is best to re-roof with a new Terracotta or Concrete tile to retain all the looks and natural properties they provide along with the technological advantages that the modern tile provide.

In the case of Asbestos roofs we may suggest re-roofing with metal roofing as the frames and trusses would not have the strength to take tiles.
