Flat Roofing That Works for Aussie Homes and Weather — Guardian Roofing
If you’re dealing with a flat or low-pitch roof, you already know one thing — not just any roofing will do. Flat roofs need the right profile, the right fall, and the right team to install or repair it properly.
That’s where we come in. At Guardian Roofing, we’ve been working on flat roofing across Australia for over 20 years — from backyard extensions to full commercial jobs. We know what works, what lasts, and what doesn’t cut it in Aussie weather.

For flat and low-pitch roofs, there are only a few profiles that work properly. If your roof doesn’t have enough fall (slope), regular roofing just won’t cut it — water will pool, leaks will form, and before long you’re dealing with rust, damage, and costly repairs.
Here are the profiles we use — and why:
Klip-Lok 700 Hi-Strength®
Perfect for ultra-low pitches — as low as 1°
- No visible screws (concealed fix = cleaner finish)
- 700mm wide coverage, with 43mm high ribs for strength
- Great for modern homes and commercial roofs where you want a sharp, clean look
- Designed to handle Aussie winds and heavy rain — and it looks fantastic doing it
Minimum pitch: just 1° (for 0.48mm thick material)
Trimdek®
A strong, bold profile that’s easy to install and widely used
- Great for houses, garages, sheds, and carports
- 762mm wide, with 29mm rib height
- Affordable, durable, and familiar — a real workhorse profile
- Looks a bit more traditional, but still works on modern homes
Minimum pitch: 2° — a bit steeper than Klip-Lok but still great for low-slope roofs
Speedeck®
Built for bigger roofs — fast, clean, and super strong
- Mostly used on commercial and industrial buildings
- Concealed fix for weather protection and better looks
- Designed to cover large spans quickly with less fuss
Minimum pitch: 1.5° — ideal for big, low-slope jobs where time and drainage matter
Common Flat Roofing Problems (and How We Fix Them)
|
What’s Going Wrong |
Why It Happens |
What We Do |
|
Pooling water |
Roof doesn’t drain properly |
Improve fall, upgrade the material, or install better drainage |
|
Leaks & rust |
Old sheets, poor sealing, or damage |
Replace damaged sheets, reseal, or re-roof with better profile |
|
Sun damage |
Aussie UV takes its toll |
Use UV-stable materials and coatings |
|
Expansion issues |
Metal expands in heat, especially on big roofs |
Use correct fasteners and allow for movement (Klip-Lok is great for this) |

Why Flat Roofs Are a Great Choice
Flat and low-slope roofs are becoming more and more popular — especially in modern home designs, renovations, and commercial buildings. They look clean and simple, and they’re great for creating usable space, whether it’s for solar panels, air conditioning, or even a rooftop deck.
But here’s the catch: flat roofs don’t shed water like pitched ones. That means the material you choose has to be up for the job — especially when the rain comes in hard.
