Twenty-five years on the tools teaches you which roof problems need a few tiles and which need a lot more. We bring that experience to Macleod homes, repairing broken tiles and worn pointing and restoring faded roofs properly.

Macleod is a leafy, established suburb in Banyule, largely developed after 1945 around the Hurstbridge line and Macleod station. Many of its homes are original post-war brick and weatherboard houses on decent-sized blocks, with tiled roofs that have been up a long time. Add the bushland of Gresswell Forest and the mature trees along most streets, and roofs here have a fair bit to deal with.
A quarter-century and more in roofing means we know what those roofs need and, just as importantly, what they do not. We head across to Macleod for free inspections done up on the tiles, take pictures of each fault and hand over a quote listing the jobs that matter, and only those. We then tell you whether repairs or a restoration makes more sense, and exactly why.

Experience tells us most roof failures follow a pattern, and Macleod fits it neatly.
Any one of these can cause a leak, but they usually gang up. That is why we inspect the whole roof rather than only the patch above the stain, and why an early check saves money compared with repairing water-damaged plaster later.
Fixing a roof once is always cheaper than fixing it three times. Our repairs target the cause.
Where an old coating is peeling, we will tell you honestly whether spot repairs are worth it or whether the roof is heading for a restoration.
We get up and inspect the full roof, ridge to gutter, including the state of any existing paint. Every issue is photographed.
Next, we sit down with the photos and walk you through them, and an itemised quote follows by email. If the old paint is lifting, we show you close-ups so you can judge its condition yourself. You can see what is urgent, what can wait a season or two, and what is perfectly fine. There is no charge, and no obligation follows the visit.
Every so often, patching a roof is just throwing money at it. If the old coating is failing across the roof, the pointing is gone on most ridges and tiles are porous everywhere, a full restoration delivers far better value than one patch-up after another.
We pressure clean the roof thoroughly, stripping loose paint, moss and grime. Cracked tiles come out, every ridge and hip is bedded and pointed afresh, and valleys and flashings are repaired or renewed. Then the roof is sealed and primed, and fresh topcoats go on in the colour you want. Your spend is a fraction of re-roofing, and the house gains years of protection. Our roof restoration services are covered at length on a separate page, if you like to research first.
You will find our owner, a roofer for upward of 25 years, working on your Macleod job in person. That experience shows in the details: careful preparation, the right materials for the roof and a finish that lasts.
We are licensed, insured and quality assured. Coming from Cairnlea, we make the trip across to Macleod with everything needed for the job, protect your garden and paths while we work, and leave the place spotless. Your written quote lists only what the roof needs, with no add-ons slipped in.
