Our services

Roofing services across Sydney

Whatever the roof is made of, we’ve worked on it: concrete and terracotta tile, Colorbond, Zincalume and slate. Pick the service that matches your roof, or book an inspection and we’ll tell you which one you actually need.

Roof Restoration

Bring a worn tile roof back for a fraction of the cost of replacing it: pressure clean, treat moss and lichen, rebed and repoint the ridges, replace broken tiles, then seal and coat. Most restorations add 10 to 15 years.

Roof Repairs

Leaks, slipped or cracked tiles, storm damage, rusted valleys and flashings. We find the cause first, then fix that, so you’re not calling us back after the next downpour.

Re-Roofing & Replacement

When a roof is past restoring, we strip it, lay new sarking and install new tiles or Colorbond sheets. Fixed price, agreed timeline, home kept weatherproof the whole way through.

Roof Painting

A properly prepared and painted roof looks new and lasts. We use Dulux roof coatings, backed by a 15-year warranty.

Metal & Colorbond Roofing

Repairs, restoration and replacement for metal roofs, including rust treatment and re-sheeting.

Gutters

Repairs and full gutter replacement, plus gutter cleaning before the storm season.

Roof Cleaning

Soft wash and pressure cleaning for tile and Colorbond roofs, clearing the moss, lichen and grime that hold moisture against your roof.

Roof Maintenance

A maintenance check that catches small problems while they’re still small, before they turn into leaks and ceiling damage.

My ageing concrete tile roof was leaking rainwater and was in need of some TLC. The boys from Action Roofing did a brilliant job replacing the lead flashing and also the gable end barge boards which had seen better days. The guys lifted all of the ridge capping, cleaned, cemented and pointed. Broken tiles were replaced. The whole roof was cleaned, sealed and painted to finish. The place looks great and more importantly no more leaks.
I’d highly recommend Action Roofing for a professional job.

We had major leaks following a storm on Anzac Day . Repairs were carried out , but further leaks surfaced following these repairs . Contacted Action Roofing for another assessment , where upon Paul came out , to further assess our roof . Being as thorough as he was , and with his reviews read , we decided to trust Paul and his team with our roof problems . Peter delivered necessary parts , Ben and Kyle , were the roofers on site . Their punctuality was unbelievable , worked like trojans from start to finish , for a solid 3 days . The end result was amazing , no photo's unfortunately , as I am unable to climb ladders , to get on my roof , to show proof . I could not recommend Paul and his team , high enough , for the work undergone , with my roof . Thanks greatly to all involved , Phill Robinson .

Peter and the team did a great job repointing + rebedding + pressure clean + replacing rusted valleys. Their quote was competitive and affordable too, will definitely use their service again.
I have used Action Roofing twice now and on both occasions they were very helpful with advice about our problems and quick to fix them at a reasonable price. They arrived on time, did the work and cleaned up afterwards. Very happy and would highly recommend using Action Roofing.

Action Roofing was recommended by a local carpenter. Michael said I would be really happy with them - and I was. Michael knew one of the owners for many years. All the dealings I had with Paul and Peter (the owners) and subsequently Ben and Kyle, who did the actual roofing repairs, were excellent. There were plenty of photos provided (I asked for them) and Ben explained what they did, and also educated me on what makes a good job and why. More research on my part confirmed that Ben and earlier Paul, were not talking "through their hat". The repairs/maintenance were not cheap but the care Ben and Kyle showed in their work was obvious. I wanted a good job with no shortcuts. Earlier at the time Paul assessed my roof, after questioning, Paul indicated that if I wanted shortcuts, then I would have to get another roofer. Overall, very happy customer.

These guys fixed two of our roofs over two months, They genuinely did a great job hence why we hired them again for the second job. Would definitely work with them again if needed.

Peter is one of the rare tradies that is honest and accurate about what needs fixing on a job and hence doesn’t charge an arm and a leg.
We use Peter for all of our roofing jobs and I would’t risk giving a job to anyone else. He is quick to pin point the issue and his pricing is fair. I once had an owners insurance builders return 5 times to a property without fixing the issue. I asked the owner if we could send Peter which I did and the job was completed first go.

We couldn't be happier with Action Roofing for the exceptional work Peter and his team did on both our residential and commercial properties.
The whole process from start to finish was efficient, well organized and the results amazing!
We strongly recommend Action Roofing to anyone needing a roof repair, big or small.
We're very pleased with the service and the professionalism we received from Peter and his team and will not hesitate to use their services again in future.
Thanks Peter!

I am the Maintenance manager at a Retirement and aged care village on the Northern Beaches (Allambie Heights) and we have had the pleasure of having Action Roofing do
considerable repairs, alterations and maintenance on our many 1970 era, eves and gutters. The service was excellent, the staff very skilled ,polite efficient and clean and tidy. The Owner Peter Portelli was so very competent in all aspects. Technically the best I've been associated with. He was in high demand especially during weather incidents and even then never failed to turn up for appoints , quotes or actual work to be done. When Peter gave his assurances on a job I knew it would be done to the highest standard.
I cannot but give him references of the highest quality

We had Paul give us a quote on repairing, reseating and cleaning our terracotta roof tiles. He gave us some good advice of where to get some extra tiles too. We also got him to install two whirlybirds due to moisture buildup on our ceilings and so far they seem to be working well. We love the look of our clean tiles. Paul’s quote was very reasonable.
Signs you need a roofer

Common roofing issues our roofers fix

Sydney’s climate is hard on roofs. Intense UV cracks coatings, summer storms lift tiles, and salt-laden winds corrode metal sheets. These are the six issues we see most often.

1

Cracked or broken tiles

Usually caused by people stepping on the roof the wrong way, hail or thermal stress. One broken tile is enough to let water into your sarking and start a slow ceiling leak.

2

Water stains on ceilings

The leak is rarely directly above the stain, because water runs along beams and sarking first. A proper inspection traces it to the source, so the leaking roof repair fixes the cause.

3

Sagging or wavy roofline

A roofline that dips means structural damage to rafters or battens, often from long-term moisture or termites. It needs attention before it damages ceilings and walls.

4

Moss, algae or lichen

Shaded parts of the roof grow green or black patches. It holds moisture against the surface, lifts ridge caps and wears out the coating faster.

5

Rust or corrosion

On Colorbond and Zincalume, rust starts at fastener heads, cut edges and valleys. Coastal homes see it earlier because of salt in the air.

6

Roof over 25 years old

Most Sydney roofs were built for a 30 to 40-year life. Past 25 years the sarking, underlay and seals have aged even if the surface looks fine. A drone inspection tells you where you stand.

How it works

Our four-step roofing process

STEP 1

Book an inspection

We inspect your roof at an agreed time, using a drone and thermal imaging where helpful, and walk you through what we find.

STEP 2

Quote & sign-off

A written quote within 24 hours listing materials, colours, timeline and cost. No deposit until you sign and book a start date.

STEP 3

Do the work

For a re-roof, that means strip, sark and install. For a restoration or repair, it means the job we quoted, nothing more. Site tidied every evening.

STEP 4

Final check & warranty

A final inspection and walk-through, then your 2-year workmanship warranty in writing, plus the 15-year Dulux warranty on coatings.

FAQ

The questions Sydney homeowners ask first

If the tiles are sound and the problem is age, moss, cracked pointing or a faded coating, restoration usually does it. If tiles are crumbling, the roofline sags or the sarking has gone, it’s time to replace. The drone inspection shows you which, and we’ll tell you straight.

It depends on the roof and the job, so we don’t guess. You get a written fixed price within 24 hours of the inspection.

No. The drone and thermal inspection is free, and you get a copy of what we found.
