Why Replace a Tile Roof with Metal?

The advantages of making a transition from tiles to metal:

  • Lightweight Strength: Metal roofing is lighter than traditional tile, which improves load on your home.
  • Weather-Tightness: Metal roofing better resists wind, rain and hail, Melbourne weather at its worst – compared to most tile alternatives.
  • Longevity & Durability: A properly installed metal roof typically will last 40-60 years with little maintenance.
  • Energy Efficient: Reflective metal surfaces reduce the amount of heat in your home, cutting energy usage and costs while increasing comfort.
  • Low Maintenance: Metal sheets do not crack or break like tiles; less opportunity for leaks and lower maintenance cost.
  • Modern Look and Value: A metal roof gives your home contemporary style, which could increase your property’s appeal and Melbourne’s market value.

Our Tile to Metal Roof Conversion Process

At Guardian Roofing, we make sure all conversions are full, professionally engineered and complies with regional building requirements in Melbourne.

1. Detailed Roof Inspection & Assessment

Full roof inspection is our first step: the structure under tiles, existing roof framing (including trusses and tie downs), insulation, the slope of your roof. we may have to perform some remedial work (e.g. reinforcing the roof frame, replacing old battens or fixing any damage).

2. Design & Material Selection

We’ll assist with selecting the right style of metal roof (Colorbond®, corrugated, standing seam etc.), finishes and accessories (ridge caps, flashings, gutters) to provide you with an architectural statement that performs as good as it looks.

3. Removal of Tile & Preparation

The tiles are gently extracted, and debris is adequately addressed. We fix or replace battens, underlays and insulation as necessary to start fresh and make sure your new metal roof is tight, safe and solid.

4. Installation of Metal Roof

Our experienced installers properly detail the metal sheets, flashings and trim with tight seals. Every little thing is checked and doublechecked to make sure it doesn’t leak, it lets water off and that your roof can handle the climate of Melbourne.

5. Final Inspection & Quality Assurance

After installation, we do a complete quality inspection. We ensure that all fasteners are tight, seams are sealed, gutters line up correctly, and the finish is spotless. Our goal is for you to be entirely delighted with both appearance and performance.
