Flemington’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. Flemington’s older workers’ cottages along Racecourse Road and Dover Street all sit under corrugated iron that’s well overdue for replacement. When we open up a Flemington 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 Flemington — Racecourse Road, Pin Oak Crescent and Epsom 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.

City of Melbourne has rules about heritage colour and profile in large parts of Flemington, and we know those rules inside out. We’ll walk you through which Colorbond profiles are likely to be approved (Custom Orb for classic corrugated look, Trimdek for modern lines) and which colours work best with the surrounding streetscape. It’s the kind of local knowledge that saves you time and a failed council submission.
