When a roof has had one repair too many, it’s time to replace it. Action Roofing does complete roof replacement across Sydney: we strip the old roof, check and fix the frame, then lay new sarking, battens and your choice of tiles or Colorbond. We’ve been re-roofing tile, Colorbond, steel and iron roofs around Sydney for more than 25 years.
Most people ring us after the third or fourth repair on the same roof. Leaks keep coming back, the tiles are crumbling, or the metal has rusted through. At that point patching costs more over time than replacing, and we’ll tell you so.
A re-roof is more than new tiles or sheets on top. We take the old roof right off, check the timber frame and fix anything that’s gone soft, then fit new battens, sarking and insulation before the new roof goes on. Valleys, flashings, gutters and downpipes are replaced at the same time, so every part of the roof starts the same age.
We re-roof in Colorbond and Zincalume, terracotta and concrete tile, and we convert tile roofs to Colorbond. Call 02 8883 1488 for a free drone inspection and a written fixed-price quote for your roof replacement.
We replace roofs on houses, units and commercial buildings across Sydney, from Colorbond and steel to terracotta and concrete tile.
Colorbond is the most common roof we put on in Sydney. It’s light, stands up to hail and falling branches, and comes in more than 20 colours. Whether the old roof is rusted steel, iron or tile, we strip it, fit new battens, sarking and insulation, then fix the Colorbond or Zincalume sheeting to the manufacturer’s spec with new screws and flashings. See our metal roofing page for colours and profiles, or the Colorbond roof cost guide for rough prices.
When cracked and slipping tiles are across the whole roof, not just a few, replacing them one at a time stops making sense. We strip the old tiles, check the battens and sarking, then lay new terracotta or concrete tiles, bedded and pointed properly. If only a few tiles are gone, a roof restoration is usually the better call.
Old gutters overflow, rust through and rot the fascia behind them. We almost always replace them as part of a re-roof, so the new roof drains the way it should from day one. We also do gutter replacement on its own.
Swapping a heavy tile roof for Colorbond takes a lot of weight off an ageing frame and cuts down on maintenance. We remove the tiles, reinforce the frame where it needs it, and fit new battens, sarking and sheeting. We’ve done these on family homes and rentals, working around tenants and the managing agent so the owner doesn’t have to.
When the roof is beyond repair, we replace the whole thing. That means everything down to the frame: tiles or sheets, battens, sarking, valleys, flashings and gutters. You choose Colorbond, terracotta or concrete tile, and the price we quote is the price you pay. For ballpark figures, read what it costs to replace a roof.
We replace metal and flat roofs on warehouses, factories, schools and strata buildings across Sydney. We work to an agreed schedule around your operations, with safe access set up before the old roof comes off.
Most roofs give plenty of warning before they fail. Catch the signs early and you can plan a replacement on your terms, not after water’s come through the ceiling. Tap a sign to see what it means and what we do about it. There’s more detail in our guide to the signs your roof needs replacing.
A roofline that dips usually means the timber underneath has rotted, been overloaded or taken on water. That's a frame problem, and no amount of work on the tiles will fix it.
We open it up, repair or reinforce the frame, then re-roof. On older homes we often suggest lighter Colorbond, which takes a lot of load off the frame.
Send us a photo or book a drone inspection. We'll look at the whole roof, tell you what it needs and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
We re-roof homes right across the Sydney metro, and we’re based in the Hills District. Pick your suburb below, or see all the areas we service.
Drone and thermal imaging show us where water is getting in and where moisture is sitting, including spots you can't see from a ladder. You see the photos too.
Every roof replacement is done by NSW licensed roofers and installed to the manufacturer's specifications.
We only recommend a roof replacement when the roof actually needs one. If a repair or a restoration will do the job, we'll tell you, with the costs of each side by side so you can decide.
We use Colorbond, Zincalume and quality terracotta and concrete tiles, and every re-roof comes with our 2-year workmanship warranty in writing.
Whether it’s a full roof replacement, a switch from tile to Colorbond, or you just want to know whether to repair or replace, book a free drone inspection. You’ll get a written fixed price within 24 hours.
Four steps, and you know the price before we start.
We fly the roof and check the tiles or sheets, the frame, gutters and ventilation. It's free, and we explain what we found in plain English, with photos.
You get a written quote within 24 hours. It says what we'll replace, what with, how long it takes and what it costs. If a repair or a restoration would do the job, the quote says that too.
We strip the old roof, fix the frame where needed, then fit new sarking, battens, tiles or sheets, flashings and gutters. We work a section at a time and cover the house every night, so it stays dry through the job.
We walk the finished roof, check every flashing and fixing, and clean up the site. You get before and after photos and your warranty in writing.
The usual signs are cracked or broken tiles right across the roof, rust that’s gone through metal sheets, leaks that come back after repairs, a sagging roofline, and moss that won’t clean off. If you’re seeing any of those, book a free drone inspection. We’ll tell you honestly whether it’s a re-roof or a repair.
We replace roofs across Sydney, including the Hills District, Hornsby, the North Shore and Western Sydney. Call 02 8883 1488 and we’ll confirm we cover your suburb.
Most re-roofs take between one and seven days. A single-storey home is often done in a few days. Two-storey or steep roofs, and tile to Colorbond conversions, take longer. The timeline is on your quote, and the house is covered every night.
If the frame is sound and the tiles are mostly in good shape, a roof restoration is cheaper and adds years to the roof. If the tiles are crumbling, the metal has rusted through or the roof has been patched again and again, replacing it is the better spend. The drone inspection tells us which, and we’ll show you why.
Colorbond is the most popular choice for re-roofs in Sydney: it’s light, stands up to hail and needs little maintenance. Terracotta and concrete tile suit homes that want to keep a traditional look. Zincalume is a cheaper metal option. We’ll recommend what suits your house and your budget.
It depends on the size and pitch of the roof, the material you choose and what we find underneath, so we price every job after an inspection. You get a written fixed price within 24 hours. For ballpark figures, see what it costs to replace a roof.
Yes. Most people stay home the whole time. It’s noisy during the day, but we work a section at a time, lay new sarking as we go, cover the roof each night and clean up every afternoon.
Every re-roof comes with our 2-year workmanship warranty in writing. The roofing materials carry their manufacturer’s warranty on top of that, and we’ll give you the paperwork at handover.
