Why choose Aussie Roof Repairs?

Plenty of roofing companies in Sydney will give you a price over the phone, push a replacement you may not need, or vanish once the deposit clears. We built this business around the opposite: get on the roof, photograph the problem, quote the repair first, fix it properly, and stand behind it for 10 years.

  • NSW licensed (Lic. 488966C) and $20M public liability insured: details on every quote
  • Repair-first quoting: the cheapest sound fix is always option one
  • Free inspections with photo reports, so you see exactly what we see
  • Fixed written quotes: the price quoted is the price paid
  • 10-year workmanship warranty in writing on every repair
  • Strata & real estate friendly: fast reports and invoicing for property managers

Roof repairs Sydney homeowners can trust

We've built our reputation on small jobs done honestly: a cracked tile swapped before it becomes a ceiling stain, ridge capping repointed before the bedding lets go, rust treated before the sheet needs replacing. That's why most of our work comes from referrals and repeat customers across Sydney.

Every job follows the same four steps, free inspection, photos, fixed quote, warrantied repair, whether it's a $700 tile fix in Marrickville or a full Colorbond re-roof in Castle Hill.

What our Sydney roofers fix

Roof leak detection

The ceiling stain is rarely below the entry point. We trace water back through sarking, battens and flashings to the actual source, then quote the repair, not just a patch over the symptom. Roof leak repair in Sydney →

Tile roof repairs

Cracked and slipped tiles, ridge capping rebedding and repointing, valley iron replacement and matching tiles for terracotta and concrete roofs of any age. Tile roof repairs Sydney →

Metal & Colorbond roof repairs

Rust treatment, sheet replacement, re-screwing, flashing repairs and full re-roofs to manufacturer spec. Metal roof repairs Sydney → or see our Colorbond roofing specialists.

Emergency & storm damage roofing

Priority make-safe tarping, photo damage reports and itemised quotes formatted for insurance claims. Emergency roof repair near me → · Storm damage repairs →

Roof restoration

If the roof is sound but tired: clean, repair, rebed, repoint and a 3-coat membrane that adds 10 to 15 years of life. Roof restoration Sydney →

Gutter repairs

Sagging, rusted or overflowing gutters cause more internal damage than most leaks. Repairs, replacement and leaf guard. Gutter repairs Sydney →

Signs you need a roofer

  • Cracked, slipped or missing tiles visible from the ground
  • Rust streaks on metal sheets, screws or flashings
  • A musty smell or mould in the roof cavity
  • Mortar crumbs or tile granules collecting in gutters
  • Sagging rooflines, lifting flashing, or daylight visible in the roof space

Any one of these is worth a free inspection before the next big rain.

How to choose a good roofer in Sydney

Whoever you hire, us or anyone else, run these checks first:

  • Verify the licence. Every NSW roofer doing work over $5,000 (including GST) needs a contractor licence. Check any licence free at verify.licence.nsw.gov.au: it takes 30 seconds.
  • Ask for the insurance certificate. Public liability should be current and in the trading entity's name.
  • Insist on a fixed written quote: itemised, not a number scribbled on a card.
  • Ask for photo evidence of the problem before agreeing to work. If they won't show you the roof, walk away.
  • Read review recency, not just the star rating. A 4.9 from 2019 tells you nothing about today's crew.
  • Be wary of door-knockers after storms: storm-chaser scams targeting Sydney homeowners are well documented. A legitimate roofer doesn't need a deposit before an inspection.

Why choose Aussie Roof Repairs over other roofing companies in Sydney?

Most Sydney roofing companies are fine at roofing, where they fall down is everything around it: quotes that change, no evidence of the work, and replacement pushed when a repair would do. Here's how we run jobs differently.

Repair or replace? An honest framework

Repair usually wins when…

  • Damage is localised: a section of tiles, one valley, one flashing
  • The roof structure and most of the surface are sound
  • The roof is under ~40 years old (tile) or the metal isn't rusted through broadly

Replacement makes sense when…

  • Damage or rust is widespread across the roof
  • Repairs are recurring every season
  • You're renovating and the roof is at genuine end of life

Restoration sits in between: right for structurally sound but weathered roofs. Our inspection report sets out all three options with photos and fixed prices, and the decision stays yours.

Roofer Sydney: frequently asked questions

How do I find a good roofer in Sydney?

Check they hold a current NSW contractor licence (verify free at verify.licence.nsw.gov.au), ask for their public liability certificate, and insist on a fixed written quote with photos of the problem. Be wary of door-knockers after storms and anyone quoting without getting on the roof.

How much does a roofer cost in Sydney?

Minor tile repairs typically start from $700, leak repairs $700 to $1,500, and roof restorations $4,000 to $12,000. Prices vary with access, pitch, materials and damage. We provide a fixed written quote after a free inspection.

Do you offer free roof inspections?

Yes. Every job starts with a free inspection including a photo report, followed by a fixed written quote. No obligation, no pushy sales.

Do you repair leaking roofs?

Yes. Leak detection and repair is our core service. We trace the leak to its actual entry point (often nowhere near the ceiling stain) and repair the cause, not the symptom.

Do you repair metal and Colorbond roofs?

Yes. Rust treatment, sheet replacement, re-screwing, flashing repairs and full Colorbond re-roofs, all to manufacturer spec.

Do you repair tile roofs?

Yes. Cracked and slipped tile replacement, ridge capping rebedding and repointing, valley iron replacement and leak detection for terracotta and concrete roofs of any age.

Do you handle storm damage roof repairs?

Yes. We provide priority make-safe tarping, photo damage reports and itemised quotes formatted for insurance claims.

How fast can a roofer come out?

We reply within 1 business day, usually much sooner. Most repairs are completed within the week, with priority scheduling for active leaks and storm damage.

Should I repair or replace my roof?

If the roof is structurally sound and damage is localised, repair is usually the better-value option, and it's what we quote first. Replacement makes sense when damage is widespread or the roof is at end of life. Our inspection report sets out the honest options.

Do you service my suburb?

We service greater Sydney: Inner West, North Shore, Eastern Suburbs, Northern Beaches, Western Sydney, Sutherland Shire, Hills District and South West Sydney. Use the postcode checker or call 1300 304 162.

Are your roofers licensed and insured?

Yes. NSW contractor licence, $20M public liability insurance, and every job carries our 10-year workmanship warranty.

Do roof repairs come with a warranty?

Yes. A 10-year workmanship warranty in writing, plus applicable manufacturer warranties on materials.

One real job, start to finish

A leak in Lugarno that an earlier patch hadn't fixed. These are the photos from the job: the same kind of report you get with every free inspection.

What we found
Foil tape and sealant someone else had stuck over the roof tiles
Someone else's earlier patch: foil tape and sealant stuck over the tiles. It hid the leak but didn't stop it.
Roofer pointing to cracked cement bedding under the ridge capping
The real cause: the cement bedding under the ridge capping had cracked and gone to sand.
Roof timber battens rotted through by years of leaking
Underneath: roof battens rotted by years of water getting in.
How we fixed it
New waterproof sarking and new timber battens fitted under the tiles
New waterproof sarking and new timber battens across the affected section, before the tiles went back on.
New gutter and fascia fitted along the eave
A new gutter and fascia along the whole eave.

We fixed the cause, replaced the sarking and battens only where they'd failed, and put in a new gutter line. Read the full story of this job
