Australian Roofing Standards and Full Compliance

Our team is across all relevant Australian codes, such as AS 1562.1 for metal roofs and AS 2050 for tile installations. With strict oversight on every new roof, we make sure your project meets legal requirements and industry best practices, vital for both safety compliance and insurance.

While some cut corners, we do detailed checks at every stage, so there’s less risk of future problems or costly rework.

Transparent Quotes and No Budget Surprises

For new roofs, we’re upfront with itemised written quotes. You’ll see every cost outlined like materials, labour, site prep, waste removal, even access equipment.

Costs are tailored for your home or building, not a generic price-per-metre. This means better value, no hidden extras, and it’s easier to compare exactly what you’re getting.

Tailored Site Assessments and Custom Roofing Solutions

Every new roof in Australia faces unique demands like design, climate, and local conditions. We take the time for thorough on-site inspections, looking at layout, structural needs, weather exposure, and even bushfire or wind risks.

That way, we can make precise recommendations for materials and fit, instead of sweeping generalisations.

Ongoing Support and Warranty Protection

After every new roof installation, our team carries out final inspections and clean-up, making sure the finished product meets both our standards and industry expectations.

All new roofs completed by Five Star Roofing are backed by strong manufacturer and workmanship warranties, with ongoing support for any post-installation care or maintenance if you need it.

If you’re ready to start planning a new roof, get in touch with us for clear advice and a tailored quote. We’re here to make the process easy and reliable from start to finish.

 

 

Full-Service New Roofing for All Property Types

At Five Star Roofing, our team handles the complete process for new roofs across Australia, from assessment to final handover. We deliver roofing services tailored to both residential and commercial requirements.

Detailed Roof Assessment and Consultation

Every new roof project starts with a thorough inspection or precise measurements, whether for a fresh build or a roof replacement. Our experienced assessors look at structural soundness, ventilation, insulation, and any existing water or pest issues.

For new builds, we check load capacities and advise on specific needs like bushfire zone or heritage overlays.

You can expect clear, itemised quotes and a fully transparent approach backed by two decades of local insight.

Material Selection and Custom Roof Design

We guide you through selecting the right roofing material for your site and style. Our team works with both tile and metal roofing, including Colorbond® and Zincalume profiles, as well as terracotta and concrete tiles.

We advise on colour, energy efficiency, and compliance with bushfire and cyclone ratings. Our designs integrate guttering, skylights or solar panel requirements, all based on building codes and your preference.

Seamless Installation and Structural Upgrades

Our installers manage everything from safe removal of old roofing to structural upgrades if needed. We reinforce trusses and battens to meet modern wind-load codes or optimise for lighter metal roofs.

Every detail of roof sheet or tile installation follows the highest Australian Standards for weather protection. We fabricate flashings and seal every penetration with precision, ensuring long-term durability and a watertight finish.

Quality Control, Compliance, and Customer Handover

Before project sign-off, our supervisors conduct a full inspection for quality and code compliance. You receive warranty documents, maintenance advice, and necessary certification for council or insurance.

We finish with a complete site clean-up and a handover that gives you peace of mind, knowing your new roof is built to last.

How To Choose the Right New Roofs Material

Picking the right material is crucial when planning new roofs in Australia. Our team at Five Star Roofing has decades of hands-on experience with the main options used across NSW, QLD and ACT.

Your material choice affects everything from resilience and maintenance to how well your new roof suits your home’s look and local environment.

Durability and Performance of Materials

Metal and tile roofing are the most common choices for new roofs in Australia. Metal roofs, like Colorbond, handle harsh sun, heavy rains, and coastal conditions well.

Terracotta and concrete tiles stand up to salt air and top-notch UV exposure, making them good for coastal or suburban areas.

Each material we use on new roofs is selected for long service life and minimal maintenance, tailored for Australian conditions.

Safety and Compliance for Bushfire Areas

We always factor in bushfire safety standards. Metal roofing is a non-combustible choice and perfectly suited to many high-risk areas across NSW, QLD and ACT. Quality tiles (such as clay and concrete) are also available in fire-rated options. Our team ensures every new roof is installed to meet or exceed these stringent regulations.

Energy Efficiency and Comfort

Energy efficiency is front of mind for modern homes. Metal roofing can include reflective finishes to reduce summertime heat gain. Tile roofs, especially concrete and terracotta, have high thermal mass, which helps keep indoor temperatures stable.

For added benefit, proper insulation is always considered with any new roof we install in Australia.

Maintenance and Lifespan Considerations

Every roofing material has unique ongoing needs. Our installs focus on minimising future hassle, metal and tile roofs generally require only routine inspections and minor cleaning.

Choosing the right combination of roof material and professional installation means your new roof from Five Star Roofing delivers peace of mind for decades to come.

 

If you’re looking to future-proof your home, our team is ready to talk you through all suitable options for new roofs in Australia.

 

 

Our Process for Installing New Roofs

We know getting a new roof is a big decision. Here’s how our team at Five Star Roofing makes the experience as clear and straightforward as possible.

Assessing Your Roof and Needs

We begin with a proper inspection of your existing roof or the plans for your new build. Our team looks at the current structure, checks for any damage, and helps you weigh up whether a full replacement, repair, or new install is right for your situation.

Planning and Installing the Roof

Once you’re ready to move forward, we help you choose the best materials for your home and budget, whether that’s tile or metal.

Our crew takes care of supply, installation, and making sure everything meets strict Australian standards for durability and compliance. You can expect a clear timeline and minimal hassles along the way.

Final Site Review and Quality Check

Once the roof is installed, we carry out a detailed inspection. We check every section, fixing or adjusting anything that needs it. This way, your new roof meets our own standards and follows all local regulations.

Site Clean-up and Handover

We tidy up after ourselves, taking any leftover materials and debris with us. Before we finish, we talk you through the completed project so you know exactly what’s been done.

Frequently Asked Questions

We understand that choosing between a roof restoration and a roof repair can be confusing, especially with Australia’s varied climate and the strict standards around building work.
Roof repair is usually the best option if the issues are minor. Think small leaks, a few damaged tiles, or isolated rust on a metal sheet.

Restoration, on the other hand, is recommended when your roof is showing widespread signs of ageing, such as faded colours, multiple cracked or loose tiles, or consistent leaks across several areas.

At Five Star Roofing, we generally find that restoration becomes the more cost-effective option when repairs are becoming frequent, as it can extend your roof’s life by up to 15 years for a fraction of the cost of a full replacement, typically falling in the $5,000 to $12,000 range depending on size and material.

If you’re unsure what’s best for your roof, book a professional inspection with the Five Star Roofing team and we’ll provide honest, tailored advice to get you the best result for your property.

The cost of a new roof in Australia typically ranges from $15,000 to $35,000 for residential properties, depending on factors like the size of your home, choice of materials (tile or metal), roof pitch, and site access.
Homes exposed to severe weather or requiring structural repairs may fall toward the higher end of the range. At Five Star Roofing, we always supply a transparent, itemised quote that covers all labour, materials, and permits, ensuring there are no hidden fees throughout the process. Commercial and strata projects generally cost more due to their scale and compliance requirements.
For an accurate estimate tailored to your property and suburb, get in touch with the Five Star Roofing team and we’ll arrange an on-site assessment.

In most cases, replacing or installing a new roof on your home in Sydney or Brisbane will require council approval, especially if you are changing the roof’s structure, height, or material. Local council regulations are designed to ensure safety, compliance with neighbourhood aesthetics, and that all work meets current Australian standards.

For straightforward replacements using similar materials and no structural changes, a “Complying Development Certificate” might be enough. However, heritage-listed properties, significant alterations, or developments in bushfire-prone areas will almost always need a full Development Application.

At Five Star Roofing, we’re experienced with both cities’ approval processes and can advise you on what’s required for your specific project. If you’re not sure where to start, get in touch and we’ll walk you through your council’s requirements and help manage the paperwork for a smooth installation.

The timeline for a new roof installation in Australia will usually fall between one and two weeks for most standard residential properties, though this can vary based on roof size, material choice, and site accessibility.
Delays are possible if there’s structural work required, bespoke materials on order, or bad weather in the forecast, a common consideration across much of NSW and QLD.
At Five Star Roofing, we aim to keep disruption to a minimum and will discuss scheduling with you upfront, including arranging for permits and scaffolding if needed.
Larger commercial or strata jobs can take longer depending on complexity and regulatory compliance.
If you’re curious about the timing for your specific project, contact Five Star Roofing and we’ll provide a tailored timeline after a site assessment.
