Five Star Roofing provides expert roofing for homeowners across Canberra, the nation’s capital located in the ACT at approximately 35°S latitude, sitting at around 580 metres above sea level with a population of roughly 470,000 people.
Our team regularly works across suburbs like Gungahlin, Tuggeranong, and Woden, as well as near landmarks such as Lake Burley Griffin and the Parliamentary Triangle. We tailor every roof to suit the specific conditions these areas experience.
Every project begins with a thorough inspection, followed by a detailed quote and material selection. Our crew handles everything including removal of old roofing, installation of new materials, flashing, ridge capping, and final cleanup, keeping you informed at every stage.
Beyond roofing, we offer Roof Restoration, Gutter Installation, Colorbond® Guttering, Metal Roofing, Solar Roof Tiles, Skylight Installation, Emergency Roof Repair, Commercial Roofing, and Strata Roof Repairs. One team covers all your needs.

Five Star Roofing offers a full range of roofing solutions built for Canberra’s climate, from frosty winters to scorching summers. Every service is delivered by licensed tradespeople using quality-assured materials.
Canberra’s temperature extremes, dropping below zero in winter and climbing past 40°C in summer, put enormous stress on aging roofs. Our roof replacement service covers full removal, structural checks, and installation of new materials rated for local conditions. We work with Colorbond®, concrete tile, and terracotta tile to suit every home style.
Cracked tiles, damaged flashing, and minor leaks are common issues for Canberra homes after hailstorms and heavy rain. Our roof repair team responds quickly to assess the damage and carry out lasting fixes rather than temporary patches. Early repairs prevent small issues from becoming expensive structural problems.
Many Canberra homes have roofs that are structurally sound but showing signs of age, fading, moss, and surface wear. A professional roof restoration includes a full clean, re-bedding and repointing of ridge caps, and the application of a protective membrane coating. It extends roof life significantly at a fraction of full replacement cost.
Canberra’s storm season can bring sudden hail, high winds, and heavy downpours that cause immediate roof damage. Five Star Roofing offers emergency roof repair to protect your home fast and minimise interior damage. Contact us as soon as damage occurs and our team will prioritise your job.
Commercial and strata properties across the ACT face unique roofing demands, including large flat roof sections, skylights, and high-traffic access areas. Our commercial roofing team works with business owners, property managers, and strata committees to deliver quality outcomes on schedule. We handle everything from office buildings in the Civic precinct to industrial facilities in Fyshwick.
Blocked or damaged gutters are a leading cause of water damage in Canberra homes, particularly after leaf fall in autumn from the city’s many deciduous trees. We supply and install Colorbond® guttering in a range of profiles and colours to match your roof and home exterior. Proper gutter installation protects your fascia, foundations, and landscaping from water overflow.
We bring experience, accountability, and genuine care to every roofing project in the ACT. Here is what sets our team apart.
Every Five Star Roofing technician holds a current roofing licence in the ACT. Full public liability insurance protects your property throughout the job.
We are certified installers for leading roofing brands including Colorbond®. Certification means your installation meets warranty requirements and manufacturer standards.

Canberra sits in one of Australia’s most active hail corridors, with storms capable of cracking concrete tiles, denting metal sheeting, and displacing ridge caps. Damage is not always visible from the ground, which is why a professional inspection after any significant storm is important. Left unaddressed, broken tiles allow water to penetrate the sarking and roofing battens below. Our team assesses the full extent of damage and replaces affected materials promptly to restore full waterproofing.
Water stains on ceilings, damp patches in the roof space, and mould growth are all signs of an active roof leak. In Canberra homes, leaks most often originate from failed flashing around chimneys and skylights, cracked ridge cap pointing, or lifted roof sheets after high winds. The ACT’s heavy spring and summer rainfall means even a small gap can let in significant water over a short period. Our repair process identifies the root cause rather than masking the symptom, delivering a lasting fix.
Many Canberra homes built in the 1960s through to the 1980s are approaching the end of their original roof’s serviceable life. Visible sagging, broken or displaced battens, and widespread cracked or slipping tiles are signs the structure needs urgent attention. Prolonged freeze-thaw cycles during Canberra winters accelerate the deterioration of mortar bedding and timber components. Our team carries out a full structural assessment to determine whether targeted repairs or a complete replacement is the most cost-effective solution.
Severe storms in the ACT can strip sheets of roofing, break gutters away from fascias, and leave homes exposed to further rain damage within hours. If your roof has sustained major storm damage, call Five Star Roofing immediately rather than waiting for a scheduled appointment. Our emergency response team carries tarps and temporary sheeting to protect your home while permanent repairs are arranged. Acting fast limits interior damage and reduces the overall scope and cost of repairs needed.

Got questions about your Canberra roof? Here are answers to what our customers ask us most often.
Roof replacement costs in Canberra typically range from $8,000 to $25,000 or more depending on roof size, pitch, and the materials chosen. Colorbond® metal roofing and concrete tile replacements sit at different price points, and any structural repairs required will add to the total. Five Star Roofing provides a detailed, itemised quote after a free inspection so you know exactly what is included.
Most residential roof replacements in Canberra are completed within two to five days, depending on roof size, complexity, and weather conditions. Metal Colorbond® roofs often install faster than tile roofs due to the larger sheet sizes used. Our team keeps you updated on the schedule throughout the project so you are never left guessing.
In the ACT, a building approval is generally required for a full roof replacement but not for like-for-like repairs. Applications are assessed by a licensed building surveyor under the ACT Planning and Land Authority framework. Five Star Roofing can advise you on what approvals apply to your specific project and assist with the documentation process.
Yes. Canberra’s winters regularly bring sub-zero temperatures and frost, which accelerates cracking in ridge cap mortar and can lift poorly sealed flashing. The ideal time for a roof inspection in Canberra is late summer or early autumn, before winter sets in. Catching problems in the warmer months means repairs can be completed without weather delays and before the heavy rain season arrives.
