Fawkner’s residential roof stock is almost all metal — early-1900s corrugated iron on the older cottages, zincalume from the post-war decades, and ageing Kliplok or Trimdek on the newer builds and townhouses. Fawkner’s post-war homes carry ageing metal roofing that needs stripping and replacing with new Colorbond. When we open up a Fawkner roof to start work, we’ve almost always seen the problem underneath before — and we know how to fix it properly the first time.

The streets of Fawkner — Sydney Road, Lorne Street and Anderson Road among them — are tight, terraced and often heritage-controlled. We plan every re-roof around the access constraints of the specific street so your neighbours, your driveway and your front garden all come through it unscathed.

Because Merri-bek City Council takes roofing heritage seriously in Fawkner, we handle the council conversation for you. From profile to colour to ridge detail — we’ll present you with the options that meet council requirements and match your home’s character. You won’t end up with a surprise rejection from council halfway through.
