Reliable Metal Roof Restoration Company in Australia
At Five Star Roofing, we specialise in comprehensive metal roof restoration services tailored for Australian homes. Our team expertly revitalises iron, tin, and steel roofs that are showing surface wear, corrosion, or faded finishes, but remain structurally sound. It is a core part of our full range roof restoration services and support.
Restoration involves a thorough cleaning, application of protective coatings, and detailed sealing, returning your roof to its optimal condition and appearance. This process extends your roof’s lifespan, boosts energy efficiency with modern reflective finishes, and enhances your property’s value. You get this all without the cost and disruption of a full replacement.
We’re dedicated to sustainable solutions, reducing waste by restoring rather than replacing where possible. If your metal roof is tired but intact, Five Star Roofing is ready to help you preserve your investment and keep your home looking its best for years to come.
What’s Included in a Metal Roof Restoration
Metal roof restoration is a targeted process that gives old or weathered metal roofing new life, without the cost and disruption of a full replacement. In Australia, it’s a proven way to address corrosion, leaks, and aesthetic wear on Colorbond, Zincalume, or galvanised steel roofs.
Our team at Five Star Roofing follows a systematic approach that’s been refined over nearly twenty years on hundreds of local homes and commercial sites.
Detailed Inspection & Assessment
Every metal roof restoration starts with a comprehensive inspection. We check for loose or rusted sheets, failing fasteners, and signs of leaks or water ingress. This thorough assessment allows us to plan targeted restoration, ensuring we address obvious issues and those developing underneath.
Cleaning, Preparation, and Repairs
The next step is deep cleaning using industrial high-pressure water jets. This stage removes contaminants, debris, and flaking coatings to expose the metal’s true condition. We repair or replace damaged sheets and fasteners, particularly if cyclone washers are needed in exposed areas. Our metal roof restoration process often catches problems missed by DIY efforts,
Advanced Anti-Corrosion Treatment
After cleaning and repairs, treating rust and applying high-grade primers is critical. We use metal-specific primers and rust inhibitors designed for Australian conditions, followed by flexible UV-stable coatings that seal and protect.
These coatings restore colour, improve resistance to future corrosion, and can include heat-reflective options for greater energy efficiency, without interfering with rainwater harvesting, if your property uses it.
Sealing, Final Checks, and Compliance
All joints, laps, and penetrations are resealed using top-quality materials for lasting weatherproofing. At Five Star Roofing, our team finishes every job with a detailed quality check, ensuring all work meets Australian Standards and your expectations. We’re fully compliant with state regulations and safety codes, so you can be confident in the end result.

Why You Should Consider Metal Roof Restoration
Metal roof restoration offers a range of practical benefits for Australian homeowners and business operators. Our team at Five Star Roofing has restored hundreds of metal roofs across NSW and QLD, so we know first-hand how this service can extend the life of your roof and add value to your property.
Lower Overall Roof Costs
Restoring a metal roof is significantly less expensive than a full replacement, usually only 25 to 40 percent of the cost. Instead of removing and disposing of your existing roof, we focus on repairs and recoating. This process keeps more money in your pocket and avoids unnecessary disruption at home or work.
Extended Roof Lifespan
A properly restored metal roof can see an extra 10 to 20 years of service. Our team addresses rust, leaks, and wear before they develop into structural issues. We tailor each restoration to your roof’s condition, protecting your investment and delaying the need for expensive capital works. Our experience spanning nearly two decades ensures the right approach every time.
Improved Energy Efficiency
Metal roof restoration is the time to upgrade to heat-reflective coatings. These advanced coatings reduce your roof’s surface temperature and help keep your property cooler during peak summer. We ensure the roof is sealed and insulated during the process, helping you save on energy bills and making the building more comfortable all year round.
Reduced Environmental Impact
Restoring a metal roof creates far less waste than a replacement. We keep the existing structure in place, lowering landfill contributions and demand for new materials. The work itself is faster, allows most daily activities to continue with little interruption, and supports a more sustainable approach to property maintenance.
If you want to extend the lifespan of your property’s metal roof, Five Star Roofing can help with solutions tailored for long-term performance. Get in touch for professional advice on whether restoration is the right fit for your roof.
How We Work Across NSW and QLD
Our team at Five Star Roofing provides metal roof restoration across key regions in NSW and Queensland. With nearly 20 years of experience, we tackle everything from coastal corrosion in Newcastle and Bayside Melbourne to thermal expansion concerns in regional Victoria.
We also come in if you need to restore a Colorbond® roof, or any other roofing material for that matter, tailoring every project to local climate conditions and building standards.
Coastal Protection for Metal Roofs
Salt air and moisture along the NSW coast, including Newcastle, create high risks for roof corrosion and leaks. Our technicians use advanced sealing and roof ventilation techniques, ensuring every metal roof restoration withstands the coastal environment. We always stay up to date on regulations specific to these areas, so safety and compliance are guaranteed.
Urban and Regional Metal Roofs
From Brisbane’s humid subtropical climate to the dry heat in Adelaide and the mixed conditions across Greater Melbourne, each location brings unique challenges. We use premium coatings, manage all compliance paperwork, and apply specialist cleaning to eliminate growth and prevent thermal expansion issues.
Our processes address both urban developments and regional homes, maintaining metal roof integrity under a variety of environmental pressures.
Roof Restoration for All Property Types
We’re well-versed in restoring metal roofs for heritage homes, new builds, and commercial premises in cities like Brisbane, Ballarat, and the Mornington Peninsula. Our scope includes detailed inspections, repairing corrosion or rust, and using industry-preferred materials such as Colorbond® for a durable and visual result.

Our Metal Roof Restoration Process
At Five Star Roofing, we approach every metal roof restoration with experience and care. Here’s what you can expect when our team looks after your roof.
Inspect Present Roof Condition
First, we visit your property and thoroughly assess the metal roof. We look for signs like faded paint, minor corrosion, and any leaks to make sure the structure is still sound. If your roof only shows surface issues, not rust right through or severe damage, restoration is a smart move.
Make Repairs & Prepare Surface
Once we know the roof is suitable, we move on to prepping and repairing. Our team repairs or replaces problem areas, treats rust spots, and reseals seams and fasteners. Careful preparation means your fresh coatings or paint will last and protect for years to come.
Paint With Protective Coatings
Once repairs are sorted, we apply high-grade primers and roof paint suited to Australian conditions. This step restores appearance and protects the metal from weather and UV, helping prevent future issues.
Perform Final Inspection
After painting, we complete a detailed inspection of the entire roof surface and all coated areas to confirm full coverage and quality workmanship. We also conduct a final site clean-up, removing equipment and waste before handover.
