Tile to Metal Roof Conversions Melbourne

Tile to Metal Roof Conversions

There are so many advantages to changing from a tiled roof to a metal roof:

Less weight on the structure
No need to panic about broken tiles in a hailstorm
Possums can’t lift metal sheets like they can roof tiles
An instant change to the street presence of the dwelling

Building Permits

What is little known or acknowledged amongst our competitors is that a tile to metal reroof or conversion requires a building permit in Victoria. To be clear, Council’s require a permit because the tile to metal conversion constitutes a “structural change” that materially alters the building’s structural integrity and does not involve a “like-for-like” material replacement.

The permit process ensures the conversion is safe, structurally sound, complies with the National Construction Code (NCC), and is carried out by a registered building practitioner.

Familiar with all the steps involved, Roofrite can guide you from start to finish, coordinating the appropriate professionals so that the process is hassle free and is compliant with your local council’s permit requirements. At the end, you’ll have a fully compliant, professionally guaranteed reroof.
