Australia’s Trusted Colorbond® Roof Restoration Professionals
At Five Star Roofing, we specialise in professional Colorbond® roof restoration for family homes and apartments. Over time, even tough Colorbond® roofs can show signs of fading, surface rust, and general wear due to Australia’s intense sun and unpredictable weather.
Our expert process goes beyond standard roof repair. Our service includes thorough cleaning, targeted rust and corrosion treatment, and application of high-quality coatings formulated specifically for Colorbond® surfaces. This forms a key part of our full-service approach to restoring residential roofs.
Restoration is ideal when your Colorbond® roof is still structurally sound but has lost its vibrant look, or you want to enhance curb appeal before renovating or selling. By restoring rather than replacing, you’ll enjoy a fresh new finish, improved weather resistance, and added lifespan for your existing roof, all at a fraction of the replacement cost.
With Five Star Roofing, you can trust our experience, reliability, and commitment to quality results every time. Contact us for a no-obligation roof assessment for your property.
What’s Included in a Colorbond® Roof Restoration
When we talk about Colorbond® roof restoration, we’re referring to a detailed process that brings your steel roof back to life. It’s more than a fresh coat of paint. It’s about restoring function, durability, and street appeal with the right approach. At Five Star Roofing, we use methods proven across hundreds of homes and commercial buildings throughout NSW and QLD.
Understanding the Restoration Process
Colorbond® roof restoration starts with a comprehensive inspection. We check for issues like fading, rusting around fasteners, damaged sheets, and minor leaks. This assessment leads our team to address the right problems, so you’re only paying for what’s necessary. Restoring your Colorbond® roof this way extends its lifespan and helps delay a costly total replacement.
Cleaning and Surface Preparation
Proper preparation is key to a lasting outcome. We use industrial high-pressure cleaning to strip away moss, lichens, built-up dirt, and surface chalking. Rust-prone areas are manually cleaned and treated, and gutters are cleared too. This ensures that new coatings bond securely and won’t fail early, which is a step many DIY efforts or budget services skip, but we never do.
Repairs and Fastener Replacement
Old Colorbond® installs often hide rusted or mismatched screws that can lead to leaks and corrosion. We replace these with modern Colorbond-compatible fasteners and secure any loose or damaged sheets. Attention to joints, flashings, and penetrations is essential for a watertight finish that meets both manufacturer and insurance standards.
Advanced Coating & Finishing Touches
After prepping and repairing, we prime the metal with products designed for Australian conditions. Two durable, UV-resistant topcoats follow, selected for compatibility with Colorbond® steel and your chosen colour. This process renews the look and maximises service life. Our work is then checked in detail, and we stand by it with robust warranties.

Why You Should Consider Colorbond® Roof Restoration
Restoring a Colorbond® roof carries lasting advantages for homeowners across Australia. Our team at Five Star Roofing combines technical experience and practical know-how from nearly 20 years in roofing to ensure your roof gets the results it deserves. See what sets a professional Colorbond® roof restoration apart.
Increased Property Value
A professionally restored Colorbond® roof instantly sharpens street appeal. Updated colour and uniform finishes signal that your home has been well cared for, which is a key factor that real estate agents and buyers look for.
Our restoration process helps your property stand out in competitive markets and is a proven way to support a higher resale price. At Five Star Roofing, we apply advanced coatings and attention to detail for a finish that contributes to the home’s value.
Increased Roof Lifespan
Colorbond® roof restoration addresses early signs of wear, halts corrosion and ensures watertight integrity. Regular restoration, rather than replacement, means more years from your existing materials.
Our team has worked with Colorbond® for hundreds of projects, so we know how to renew anti-corrosive properties and restore weather protection with minimal disruption. Maintaining your restored roof often only needs the occasional washdown, saving time and money on future repairs.
Improved Thermal Efficiency
A fresh Colorbond® roof restoration includes modern, heat-reflective paints designed for Australian summers. This technology reduces roof surface temperatures, which can help your home stay cooler and take pressure off your air conditioning.
Lower power consumption is noticeable and adds up over time. We use trusted materials to reduce energy costs and support energy savings, promoting a more comfortable living environment.
Reduced Environmental Waste
Restoration keeps existing Colorbond® steel out of landfill and extends its useful life. The process is less resource-intensive than full roof replacements and makes the most of your current structure.
With Five Star Roofing, you benefit from a transparent process that’s cost-effective, given most restorations are a fraction of replacement cost. We always provide detailed assessments, so you know exactly what is involved.

How We Work Across NSW and QLD
Our team at Five Star Roofing proudly completes Colorbond® roof restoration projects across a wide service area in NSW and QLD. We work with homeowners, builders, and strata managers throughout both metro and regional locations. With close to two decades in the industry, we understand how local conditions and council requirements can impact restoration outcomes.
Suburbs & Centres in NSW and QLD
We restore Colorbond® roofs in key regions such as Greater Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, and Northern Rivers, as well as major NSW centres like Newcastle, the Central Coast, and Sydney’s metropolitan suburbs.
Our coverage typically extends 60km from our local depots, which means we’re able to respond promptly from the city through to coastal and rural communities, no matter if you’re in Carindale, Penrith, or Toowoomba.
Coastal Protection for Colorbond® Roofs
Salt spray, high humidity, and intense sun all affect Colorbond® roofs, especially those located near the coast. Our restoration process takes this into account. We use UV-stable treatments for harsh inland sun, and anti-corrosive coatings for homes exposed to coastal air. This approach ensures your restored roof meets local demands, lasting longer and looking right.
Local Council Compliance & Site Safety
Australian building codes, council requirements, and site safety protocols vary greatly between regions. Our team manages all restoration work to meet current state and local guidelines, organising permits as needed. We handle every job with certified safety gear, waste protocols, and public liability insurance, giving you confidence in a compliant result every time.
Colour Matching and Community Trends
Colorbond® colour and finish trends can shift by suburb or development. Some communities require specific shades, others have a mix of classic and contemporary styles. We’re familiar with local palettes, developer requirements, and can match or update your roof’s look with authentic Colorbond® finishes.

Our Process for Colorbond® Roof Restoration
Restoring a Colorbond® roof takes more than just a simple coat of paint. Our process is methodical, based on years of hands-on experience with local homes.
Assess Roof Condition
First, we send someone out for a close look at your roof. Our team checks for rust, faded areas, or minor damage, making sure the base is still solid and that restoration is the right choice for your specific circumstance.
Clean & Prepare Surface
We never cut corners at this stage. Every roof gets a high-pressure clean to remove dirt, old coatings, and any loose debris. This helps the new coating bond well and last longer, giving you that sharp, rejuvenated finish that lasts.
Repair Damaged Areas
Before we start painting, we treat any areas showing signs of rust and repair small dents or loose screws. This step ensures the roof surface is sound and ready for coating, which helps the restoration hold up over time.
Apply Specialised Coating
We use coatings specifically formulated for Colorbond® roofs, applied carefully for even coverage. This not only restores the colour and finish but also adds protection against harsh sun and changing weather.
