Metal Roofing

Metal roof replacement is the process of safely removing your old or damaged roof and installing a new one using durable metal materials such as Colorbond®, Zincalume®, galvanised steel, or stainless steel.

This modern roofing solution is known for its:

• ✅ Long-lasting durability – typically lasting 40+ years

• ✅ Energy efficiency – reflects heat and reduces cooling costs

• ✅ Resistance to extreme Australian weather – including rain, wind, hail, and bushfires

• ✅ Low maintenance – minimal repairs needed over time

• ✅ Modern curb appeal – sleek finishes and a wide range of colour options

• ✅ Eco-friendly materials – often made from recycled content and recyclable at end-of-life

At Joniec Plumbing, we specialise in metal roof replacements across Melbourne, helping homeowners protect and enhance their properties with high-performance roofing built for local conditions.

Knowing when it’s time to replace your roof can save you from costly repairs and water damage down the track. Here are the most common signs your roof may need replacing:

• 💧 Leaks, water stains or internal moisture

• 📉 Sagging rooflines or uneven surfaces

• 🔧 Deteriorated flashing around chimneys, vents, or skylights

• 🧱 Cracked, broken, or missing tiles or shingles

• 🎨 Faded, peeling paint or rust patches on metal roofing

• ⛈️ Storm or wind damage

• 🕒 Visible signs of ageing – especially if the roof is over 25–30 years old

If you’ve noticed any of the above, it may be time to consider a professional roof inspection and replacement. At Joniec Plumbing, we specialise in metal roof replacements across Melbourne, delivering long-term protection, energy efficiency, and a modern look for your home.

The timeline for a metal roof replacement can vary depending on several important factors. At Joniec Plumbing, we aim to complete most standard roof replacements efficiently while maintaining the highest safety and quality standards.

Here’s what can influence the project duration:

• 🏠 Roof size and pitch – Larger or steeper roofs require more time to complete

• 🧱 Condition of existing roof and structure – Damaged or rotting sections may need additional repairs

• 🌧️ Weather conditions – Rain or strong winds may cause delays

• 🧯 Asbestos roofing – If your old roof contains asbestos, professional removal is required and will extend the timeline

In most cases, and with favourable weather, a typical metal roof replacement in Melbourne takes approximately 2 to 3 days.

Our team at Joniec Plumbing always provides a clear project schedule before starting, and we stay in close communication to ensure you’re informed every step of the way.
