Types Of Commercial Properties We Work With

At Five Star Roofing, our team covers various commercial properties across Brisbane. Years in the industry have given us hands-on insight into what each type of building needs in terms of commercial roofing.

High-Rise Offices and Corporate Buildings

Brisbane office blocks, from premium to B-grade, require specific roofing solutions. These buildings have tight compliance standards and often need efficient drainage and robust weather protection.

We routinely manage large-scale projects on these sites, handling both metal and tile options with minimal disruption to tenants.

Warehouses, Factories, and Logistics Centres

Industrial sites in Brisbane endure a lot of wear from machinery, weather changes, and constant use.

Our commercial roofing for warehouses and factories focuses on durability and ease of maintenance. We ensure our work supports loading docks, high-clearance spaces, and heavy-duty operational demands.

Retail Spaces, Showrooms, and Hospitality Venues

Shops, shopping centres, showrooms, and hotels have their priorities, visual appeal, safety, and energy efficiency. We often work after hours to avoid disruptions.

Our team works with property managers and business owners to deliver lasting roofing, whether it’s a smaller shopfront or a major hotel redevelopment.

Medical, Childcare, and Educational Facilities

Facilities such as medical centres, clinics, childcare, and educational sites often have strict timelines and compliance needs.

Our experience covers these sensitive environments, and we provide roofing solutions that meet health and safety standards without disrupting daily operations.

If your commercial property needs a new roof or repairs, we have the depth of experience and local expertise to ensure the job is done right. Talk with us to discuss your particular site and what’s most important for your operations.

 

 

Our Commercial Roofing Services

Our team at Five Star Roofing provides a full range of commercial roofing services for properties across Brisbane. Whether you run a warehouse, office complex, or retail building, we draw on decades of experience in both metal and tile roofing to deliver practical solutions that last.

Roof Replacement for Large Commercial Sites

If your property’s roof has reached the end of its service life or has severe damage, we provide comprehensive roof replacement services.

Our process starts with a site assessment and includes removing the old roofing system, supplying and installing new materials, like Colorbond® or specific commercial profiles, and correcting insulation and drainage features.

We manage every stage, ensuring minimal impact to business operations and full compliance with safety standards.

Leak Detection and Targeted Repairs

Leaks are common issues in commercial roofing, often needing prompt diagnosis to prevent internal damage.

We use moisture detection tools and thermal imaging to trace the cause quickly. Our experienced staff handles flashing replacements, seals roof penetrations, and addresses drainage problems to prevent repeat issues.

Our rapid response limits water ingress, removing the risk of wider disruption to the premises.

Scheduled Maintenance and Asset Reporting

Proper maintenance extends your roof’s lifespan and reduces long-term costs.

We offer scheduled inspections, detailed condition reports, and preventive care, like gutter clearing and minor rust treatments, tailored for large and complex buildings.

Through asset reporting, business owners get clarity on future works, budgeting, and warranty matters. This planned approach keeps operations smooth and reduces emergency repairs.

Gutter, Downpipe, and Rainwater Solutions

Commercial properties have high-capacity gutter requirements.

Our services include full replacements, box gutter installation, custom rainwater drainage, and debris guards suitable for bigger catchment areas.

These measures protect against water damage and ensure compliance with local regulations, keeping your property in line with standards expected in the Brisbane region.

Every commercial roofing project we take on is backed by long-term experience and responsive, local support. Contact us to discuss your property and get clear, upfront advice on making your commercial roofing durable and trouble-free.

 

 

What to Look for in a Commercial Roofer in Brisbane

Choosing the right commercial roofing partner goes beyond price. It’s about trust, compliance, and quality. At Five Star Roofing, we bring decades of experience and deep knowledge of Brisbane’s codes and climate to deliver reliable, professional results from day one.

Licensing, Building Approval, and Regulatory Compliance

Not all roofers understand the ins and outs of QBCC licensing and Brisbane’s strict building approval system.

We manage approvals with certified building inspectors and ensure all work aligns with current Australian Standards, including AS 1562 for metal and AS 2050 for tiles, which means your project won’t run into legal or insurance headaches later.

Our quotes clearly define who secures each approval and how compliance is handled throughout the job.

Material Choice and System Experience

Brisbane’s commercial roofs need more than just off-the-shelf solutions. Our team specifies and installs proven metal and tile roofing systems suited to local weather and complex site requirements.

We explain the pros and cons of options like Colorbond® or Zincalume and reference past projects to justify every material choice. This approach ensures longevity and reliable water-tightness for offices, warehouses, or retail sites.

Worker Safety and Hazard Management

We provide extensive staff safety training and meet all workplace safety codes for commercial roofing. Our safety documentation and protocols cover high-access work, asbestos risks, and confined spaces, crucial for older or more complex sites in the region.

When hazardous materials are found, we’re equipped to manage remediation and disposal professionally and legally.

Insurance Support and Project Communication

Five Star Roofing brings unmatched insurance repair know-how, managing storm claims, documentation, and communication with your provider.

Our clients benefit from detailed quotes, site progress updates, and transparent aftercare processes, including warranties and ongoing leak prevention plans.

If you’re ready to get clarity and confidence on your next commercial roofing project, reach out to our team for a detailed assessment.

 

 

Our Commercial Roofing Process

We know Brisbane’s weather can be rough on commercial roofs, so our process is built for long-term peace of mind. Here’s how our team approaches every project, from the first look to the final check.

1. Roof Inspection

Our first step is a close inspection. We look for leaks, surface wear, signs of structural trouble, and hidden damage that could cause headaches later on. It’s not just a quick once-over. We take the time to understand your roof’s condition properly.

2. Customized Planning

Once we know what we’re dealing with, we recommend the best way forward. Sometimes it’s smart repairs, restoration, and sometimes replacement is the only real option. We always consider your budget, how much disruption you can handle, and what will last in Brisbane’s climate.

3. Preparation and Communication

Before starting work, we secure the site and inform you and your team about the schedule. We aim to minimise disruption and ensure everyone knows what to expect as the project progresses.

4. Installation or Repair

Our team gets on with the required work, whether repairs, restoration, or a full replacement, using materials and methods best suited for your roof and the Brisbane climate. We keep safety and quality at the forefront of everything we do.

Frequently Asked Questions

Costs for commercial roofing in Brisbane can vary widely. Still, most restoration projects generally range from $45 to $75 per square metre, while full replacements using high-quality materials like Colorbond® steel often sit between $120 and $200 per square metre.

Key factors influencing the price include roof size, material choice (metal or tile), access difficulties (such as high-rises), asbestos removal, and whether urgent weatherproofing is required after storms. Larger or more complex buildings, or jobs needing hazardous material removal, will naturally sit at the upper end of the range.

Five Star Roofing assesses each site individually to provide the most accurate estimate possible and ensures that all work meets Queensland regulations and commercial insurance requirements. If you’d like a tailored quote for your property, contact our team today.

Choosing between a roof repair and a full restoration for your Brisbane business often comes down to the condition and age of your existing roof. If you are seeing early signs of deterioration like rust patches, minor leaks, faded coatings, or occasional small cracks, restoration can be a smart middle ground. Still, if your roof’s underlying structure remains sound, restoration can be a smart middle ground.

Repairs are best for isolated damage after a storm or where there are only a few problem spots, but they may not address broader wear that affects the whole surface. Restoration works particularly well when you want to cost-effectively refresh your entire roof’s look, performance, and waterproofing, without the expense or disruption of a total replacement.

At Five Star Roofing, we thoroughly assess your roof’s condition with a full inspection before recommending the most suitable service. To find out whether restoration or repair is right for your property, contact our team for an evaluation.

For most significant commercial roofing projects in Brisbane, such as full roof replacements or significant structural changes, council approval and building permits are typically required. This is especially important if your property is in a heritage overlay or if the works affect fire safety systems or access provisions.

Routine repairs and like-for-like restorations often do not need council approval. Still, any changes to roof height, materials, or structure almost always do under Brisbane City Council’s building regulations.

At Five Star Roofing, we help you navigate the approvals process and work closely with local authorities to make sure your project is fully compliant. If you are unsure about your obligations, contact us for tailored advice on what paperwork you’ll need before starting your roofing project.

Timelines for commercial roofing projects in Brisbane can vary depending on roof size, building height, material choice, and weather, but most jobs take one to three weeks to complete.

More minor repairs or roof restorations on low-rise offices might be completed within several days, while full replacements on large complexes can extend up to several weeks, especially if asbestos removal or significant storm damage is involved. Rain or high winds can cause unavoidable delays, but experienced teams like Five Star Roofing know how to schedule work around Brisbane’s weather patterns to minimise disruption.

We provide clear timelines after our initial inspection so you know exactly what to expect. If you have a specific deadline or want to discuss how we can keep your business operations running smoothly during your roofing project, contact the Five Star Roofing team for advice and a tailored plan.
