REPLACEMENT ROOF SPECIALISTS
The roof is one of the most important components of your home, and for obvious reasons: it protects you and your family, keeps the water and bad weather out, while also keeping warmth and comfort in
Constant exposure to the elements can wear it down, though. When you need a quality re-roofing job done, N.Z Roofing offers the quality workmanship you are after.
REPAIRS OR RE-ROOFING?
Simple surface repairs are an option for small damage or minor leaks, however, in our experience a single leak is often a sign that many parts of the roof may start failing in the near future due to rust, corrosion of the paint and roofing iron or just general aging. Replacing the roof before it gets any worse can help avoid hidden leaks causing structural damage to your home, as well as damage to your possessions from a more severe leak emerging. It’s time for a new roof.
That’s where we come in:

How often should I replace my roof?
The lifespan of a roof varies based on the materials used and how well it’s maintained, but typically it lasts between 30 and 70 years. Roof replacement becomes necessary when repairs are no longer cost-effective or the roof has extensive damage.
What’s included in a reroofing project?
Reroofing involves removing all the old roofing materials, replacing the underlay, inspecting and replacing damaged timber purlins, and installing a new roof. Guttering can also be replaced during this process if needed.
How long does it take to replace a roof?
Most reroofing projects are completed within a week, depending on the size and complexity of the roof and the weather conditions. We’ll provide a more accurate timeframe when quoting your project.
Do I need to move out while my roof is being replaced?
You can usually stay in your home during reroofing. The work is often unobtrusive unless you’re outside. If needed, we’ll ensure your property is well-protected, especially during bad weather.
What’s the best time of year to reroof?
Summer and autumn are the ideal seasons for reroofing due to more stable weather. However, roof replacements can be done year-round, weather permitting.
Will my insurance cover the cost of a new roof?
Roof replacement due to wear and tear is typically not covered by insurance. However, if damage is caused by an accident or a natural disaster, such as strong winds, your insurance may cover the costs.
What’s the most cost-effective roofing option?
In New Zealand, longrun iron and metal tiles are the most affordable roofing materials. More expensive options include concrete tiles, clay tiles, and asphalt shingles, which also require more complex installation.
Can I replace just part of my roof?
While partial roof replacements are possible, they are often only a short-term fix unless the damage is limited to a very small area. In most cases, replacing the entire roof is a better long-term investment.
Should I replace my ceiling insulation during reroofing?
Replacing insulation during reroofing is often easier. If your insulation is damaged, damp, mouldy, or has shrunk below the truss timber level, we recommend replacing it while the roof is off.
Do I need roof ventilation?
Although residential roof ventilation is not required by building regulations in New Zealand, it’s worth considering during the planning phase of your project. Proper ventilation can improve the lifespan of your roof and the comfort of your home.
