Expert Roof Replacement Services Australia
At Five Star Roofing, we deliver professional roof replacement services tailored to the needs of Australian homes and businesses. Whether you’re considering a Colorbond® roof upgrade, a full metal roof replacement, or a tile roof replacement to remove ageing or damaged tiles, our team provides expert craftsmanship using materials built to withstand Australia’s harsh climate.
A full replacement is often the best option when your roof suffers from widespread leaks, extensive storm damage, or general wear and tear after decades of exposure. In some cases, targeted roof restoration work may be enough. We’ll help you determine the right solution.
Our team is skilled in safely removing old materials and installing new, high-performance roofing that complies with all Australian standards. We also handle complete roof installations for new builds or extensions and offer advice on long-lasting solutions like COLORBOND® steel or classic tiled finishes.
We support insurance claims following hail or storm damage and offer guidance to help you choose the most suitable style and material for your property.
If you’re looking to enhance energy efficiency, increase property value, or modernise your roof’s appearance, Five Star Roofing delivers honest advice, thorough inspections, and a seamless process from start to finish. Your roof is our reputation.
When You Should Consider Roof Replacement
A roof replacement is a significant investment that protects your home and keeps it compliant with current Australian standards. At Five Star Roofing, we understand the practical reasons behind upgrading or replacing roofs, and we’ve built our business on helping homeowners make informed decisions.
Here’s why roof replacement is important and how our team delivers the right solutions across NSW, QLD and ACT.
Ageing Roofs and End-of-Life Tiles or Metal
Most roofs in Australia, whether tile or metal, have a lifespan of 20 to 50 years. As these materials age, their ability to resist leaks and withstand weather steadily declines. At Five Star Roofing, we handle hundreds of roof replacements each year, making sure every new installation uses the latest durable materials to safeguard your property for decades to come. We regularly advise homeowners when replacement is more cost-effective than ongoing repairs.
Persistent Leaks and Water Damage in Roof Replacements
Repeated leaks and water stains, despite repairs, often mean the roofing system has reached its limit. Our team inspects for hidden structural issues that patch jobs miss, such as timber rot and compromised sarking.
We specialise in full roof replacements for NSW, QLD and ACT clients, ensuring all affected areas are rebuilt to provide real long-term protection, not just a quick fix.
Severe Storm or Hail Damage Insurance Roof Replacement
Australian weather can cause widespread damage in one event, making spot repairs uneconomical and leaving homes vulnerable. As leading insurance roof replacement specialists, Five Star Roofing works directly with insurance providers to assess and restore storm, hail, or fire-damaged roofs.
We coordinate replacements that not only meet current building codes but also future-proof your home against similar events.
Upgrading for Compliance and Energy Efficiency
Older roofs may not meet today’s stricter codes or support upgrades like solar panels. Modern roof replacements with Five Star Roofing include energy-efficient materials, improved insulation, and compliance with all local and national standards.
We guide homeowners through each requirement and offer solutions that add comfort and potentially lower energy costs.

Roof Replacement Services We Offer
At Five Star Roofing, we provide a complete range of roof replacement services across Australia, covering residential, commercial, and strata properties.
Our experienced team works with both tile and metal roofing, offering tailored solutions no matter the size or style of your building.
We work closely with insurance, developers, and homeowners to deliver replacements built to last in all Australian environments.
Full Roof Removal and Disposal
Our process starts with the safe removal of your old roofing, including asbestos handling and full site cleanup. We make sure all waste is disposed of according to local regulations, minimising disruption and leaving your property tidy.
This careful approach ensures any hidden damage in the structure is uncovered and properly dealt with, giving your new roof the right foundation.
Structural Repairs and Upgrades
Beyond swapping out tiles or metal sheets, we inspect and repair roofing structures, battens, and trusses when needed. Substrate repairs for termite damage, rot, or old leaks are addressed before installation of your new roof.
We also give you options to upgrade insulation and sarking during replacement, improving energy efficiency and weather resistance for your building.
Integrated Guttering, Flashings, and Skylights
Replacing a roof often means updating gutters, fascia, and downpipes, especially with Colorbond® systems for complete weather protection. Our team integrates new flashings and skylights as required, ensuring a watertight and compliant finish.
We’re experienced with complex roofs, custom flashings, and can coordinate with solar or ventilation installs if you need them.
Insurance, Permits, and Compliance
As insurance replacement specialists, we handle claims and documentation for storm or weather-damaged roofs. We manage building permits, bushfire safety requirements, BAL ratings, and final certification, making sure your project stays compliant with local codes.
Our team oversees each stage, from assessment to sign-off, and provides clear warranties and aftercare support.
For a thorough, compliant roof replacement that covers every detail, our local team is ready to help. Reach out for an expert assessment or to discuss your new roof’s options.
How We Handle Roof Replacements Across NSW, QLD and ACT
At Five Star Roofing, we provide roof replacements throughout NSW, QLD and ACT, covering everything from city centres to coastal towns and rural properties. Our team understands how each location brings unique considerations, whether you’re in a metro suburb, up the coast, or out in the regions.
We adapt our approach to the specific demands and expectations of each area, shaped by years of experience with tile and metal roofing for homes, strata, and commercial projects.
Navigate Local Council Regulations for Roof Replacements
Every area has its own council rules and approval processes for roof replacements. Our team works closely with local authorities to make sure each job meets compliance standards, especially where heritage concerns or insulation upgrades are required.
We streamline permit applications and keep you updated, reducing delays and avoiding hidden hassles.
Address Site Access and Logistical Challenges
Our roof replacement service adapts to your property’s access and site layout. Tight city lots, multi-level extensions, steep coastal sites, or open rural blocks each need different scaffolding, safety, and waste management solutions.
We plan every replacement methodically so installations remain efficient and safe, no matter the obstacles.
Material Selection and Regional Preferences
NSW, QLD and ACT homeowners have distinct roofing preferences and requirements due to the local climate and heritage needs. We source and supply Colorbond, coated metal, and quality tile options that handle everything from coastal salt to bushfire risk.
Our suppliers are local, so you benefit from faster turnaround and materials that truly suit your property and region.
We’ve built our reputation by working across diverse locations and adapting to specific local demands. If you’re ready to discuss a roof replacement, our team is here to offer clear advice tailored to your area.
Our Roof Replacement Process
Replacing a roof is a significant step for any homeowner. Here’s how we handle each project at Five Star Roofing to keep things clear and stress-free.
Review Your Roof’s Condition
We begin with a thorough on-site inspection, focusing on typical Australian roof types like tile and metal. Our team checks for storm damage, leaks, ageing materials, and any safety risks, all while making sure your roof complies with current Australian standards.
Discuss Next Steps With You
After inspection, we sit down to explain what we’ve found and whether a repair or full replacement best suits your situation. You’ll get honest advice about your options, including costs and what’s covered by insurance if storms or hail have caused major problems.
Replace The Old Roof Materials
If a full replacement is needed, we carefully remove the old materials and prepare the area for your choice of new tiles or metal roofing. Our crew works efficiently and safely, always keeping you updated as we go.
Focus On Neat, Compliant Results
We install the new roof to the highest standards, paying close attention to weatherproofing and looks. Once complete, we clean up and walk you through the work, making sure you’re happy with the outcome.
Conduct Final Checks and Quality Assurance
At this stage, we carefully inspect all aspects of your new roof, checking for weatherproofing, secure fittings, and finish quality. If anything needs attention, we handle it straight away before signing off on the work.
Provide Guidelines and Documentation
We walk you through the completed roof, provide care guidelines, and supply all necessary compliance and warranty documentation. You’ll have everything you need for peace of mind and future reference.
