Residential Roofing Christchurch
Quality roofing for homes — new roofs, re-roofs and repairs, done right the first time.
Roofing for homes, from a new build to a leak
Your roof is the one part of the house that is working every day and the one part nobody looks at. We handle the whole range for homeowners: new roofs on builds and extensions, full replacements when a roof is finished, and repairs when something has let go.
Whatever the job, the approach is the same. We get on the roof and tell you honestly what it needs, price it in writing, and use roofing systems suited to New Zealand conditions installed to the manufacturer specification.
Domestic roofing is a different job from commercial work. It is someone’s home, the crew is in the driveway for a week, and the work happens over bedrooms rather than a warehouse floor. We are residential roofers first. Most of what we do is house re-roofing and house roof replacement on Christchurch homes that are past patching.

Straight answers on repair vs re-roof / roof replacement
We tell you honestly when a repair will do the job — we only recommend a full re-roof when it is genuinely the better spend.
Fixed, itemised quote before we start
You get the price broken down line by line — roofing, underlay, flashings, spouting, scaffold and rubbish removal — so you can compare it properly and nothing changes halfway through the job.
The same crew, start to finish
The roofers who quote your job are the ones on your roof — no handovers, no strangers, one point of contact.
We clean up properly when we finish
Gardens are covered before we start, and the old roofing, offcuts and packaging all leave with us. Before we go we run a magnet over the lawn and driveway to pick up stray nails — so the kids and your tyres are safe.
Warranties in writing
A 10-year workmanship warranty on every re-roof and roof replacement we do, plus the 30–40 year manufacturer guarantees on the materials we install — all handed over in writing with your invoice.
Our Residential Roofing Process
Simple, predictable steps from first call to final sweep — built around your household.
Free roof check
We come out, get on the roof where it is safe to, and assess what it actually needs — with photos so you can see it too.
Written quote & options
A fixed, itemised quote — and where there is a cheaper sound option, we quote that too so you can choose.
Booked in when it suits you
We agree the start date and daily hours around you — work, school runs, pets and getting the car out of the driveway.
Staged, weathertight work
The roof is stripped and re-laid in sections, closed up every night, with flashings and spouting detailed properly.
Final walkaround & handover
We walk the job with you, magnet-sweep the property, and hand over your warranties in writing.
Residential Roofing & Re-Roofing Questions
How do I choose between roofing companies?
Four things separate good roofers from cheap ones: warranties in writing (workmanship, not just materials), an itemised fixed quote rather than a one-line price, a clear answer to "is my home weathertight overnight during the job?", and whether the people quoting are the people doing the work. Ask every roofer those four — we are happy to be compared on them.
How long does a re-roof take?
Most homes are re-roofed in about 3 to 7 days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof. Bigger or trickier jobs can take longer — you get a clear timeline in your quote so you can plan around it.
How much does re-roofing cost?
It depends on the roof size, the material you choose, the condition of what is underneath and how complex the job is. Every quote we give is written, itemised and free — with no hidden extras.
Do I need council consent to re-roof?
A like-for-like re-roof usually does not need building consent. Consent can come into play if you are switching to a heavier roofing material or the property has heritage status — we will tell you exactly what applies to your job before work starts.
Can I stay in my home during the work?
Almost always, yes. We sequence the work to keep the house weathertight and the disruption low, and we talk you through what to expect before we start.
Is long-run metal roofing right for coastal and high-wind areas?
Yes — installed properly with corrosion-resistant fixings, long-run steel is one of the best performers in exposed South Island conditions, from coastal salt spray to alpine wind.
How long will a new long-run metal roof last?
A well-installed long-run roof commonly lasts 40 to 50 years or more, depending on the environment and upkeep. The materials we install carry guarantees of 30–40 years, and our workmanship is covered by a 10-year warranty.
Can you convert my tile roof to metal?
Yes — tile-to-metal conversions are a common part of our re-roofing work. We strip the tiles, check the structure underneath, and install a new long-run roof that is lighter, tougher and easier to maintain.
