Metal roof repairs
Metal roof repairs
We repair metal roofs in Perth, including damaged sheets, leaking fixings, capping and flashings. We check rust and nearby connections before quoting.
Metal roof leaks, damaged sheets and rust
A leaking screw may involve its washer or rust around the fixing hole, so changing the screw alone may not solve it. We check the actual sheet profile and coating, whether you describe the roof as corrugated iron, tin or COLORBOND. This helps us decide between fastener repairs, flashing work and replacing damaged sheets.
Repairing fixings or replacing damaged sheets
- Inspect rust, loose sheets, screws and washers, sheet overlaps, capping, flashings and roof openings near the leak.
- Agree suitable replacement fixings, sheets or flashings and how much roofing needs to be removed. Local repairs depend on the condition of the surrounding metal.
- Check the repaired fixings, overlaps and connections. Explain any work outside the quote or areas needing more extensive sheet replacement.
Solar panels and other roof equipment can limit access. Electrical or equipment work needs the appropriate specialist; roof photos alone cannot establish an equipment fault.
Metal roof repairs and nearby connections
Leaking screws and worn sealing washers
Loose screws and worn washers can let water through a fixing point. We inspect the fixing and nearby metal before deciding whether the fastener, sheet or both need attention.
Ridge caps, hip caps and flashings
Loose or damaged capping and flashings can let rain reach the joins below. We inspect the adjoining sheets and fixings and list the affected areas in the quote.
Local repairs on a serviceable metal roof
Local repairs can be suitable when the nearby sheets and connections are still sound. We check the extent of rust and damage before recommending repair or replacement sections.

Tell us your suburb, what needs attention and the roof material, if known. We assess the roof on site. Existing photos are optional; do not climb onto the roof or enter an unsafe roof space to take them.
