Inspect Your Roof
If you have experienced severe storms with high winds or hail you should check your roof for damage. Whether you have a tiled roof, a Colourbond roof or metal roof you need to find out if it's damaged as quickly as possible. A storm damaged roof can result in structural problems if left unchecked.
You should check your roof once a year as a general rule and also after storms. Look for any obvious damage and if you detect anything out of the ordinary call in the experts. It will save you money and avoid serious issues down the track.
Walking on the roof can be dangerous so ultimately it is probably best to have a metal roofing company inspect your roof for damage. Also most homeowners cannot accurately assess the actual damage to their roof so it really is a good idea to have a professional inspection if you suspect damage.
Do a Preliminary Check
Take a walk around the perimeter of your home and have a good look at the shape of the roof. If it appears to be sagging or misshapen it may indicate problems with the supporting roof structure. Also check your ceilings and walls for any signs of water damage. mould or cracked or warped material may also expose leaks.
Get Your Roof Repaired
If you think your roof requires repairs get onto it immediately. It is always best to have an expert do the job as your roof protects your entire home and needs to be installed correctly. Ask your roofing contractor about warranties on material and workmanship.
If your roof requires temporary protection until it can be fixed properly, tarps can be strung over your home to make sure it is weatherproof. In the event of cyclones or other extreme weather events, contractors may be tied up for weeks and even months so emergency measures may need to be taken.
Insurance
Insurance against storm and weather damage is essential in our climate. If insurance repair is required your contractor will need to carry out an inspection and report of the damage so an an accurate insurance assessment can be made for insurance roof repairs. Ring your insurance company immediately to get the ball rolling.
The important thing is not to panic. Act quickly and decisively and your roof will be ship-shape in no time.

Commercial & Industrial Metal Roofing FAQs
We specialise in commercial and industrial metal roofing across North Brisbane, Woodford, and the Sunshine Coast. Our services include standing seam metal roofs, corrugated metal roofs, and custom profile metal roofing. Each system is designed to withstand Queensland’s harsh weather, offering durability, low maintenance, and long-term protection for your business. Not sure which option suits your building best? We’ll help you choose the right metal roof solution for your needs.
A properly installed and maintained commercial metal roof can last 40–50 years. Metal roofing is highly resistant to rust, dents, and storm damage, making it one of the most reliable options for industrial and commercial properties in North Brisbane, Woodford, and the Sunshine Coast. Regular inspections help keep your metal roof performing at its best for decades.
The cost of a commercial metal roof replacement depends on several factors:
-
Roof size and complexity – larger or more intricate roofs need more materials and labor
-
Metal type and coating – premium metals or protective coatings may increase upfront costs but offer long-term savings
-
Building access and height – hard-to-reach roofs can affect installation costs
-
Extra features – insulation, skylights, or gutters will impact pricing
We provide clear, detailed commercial metal roofing quotes so you know exactly what you’re investing in.
We recommend professional inspections at least once a year and after major storms. Regular inspections of your industrial metal roof help identify small issues like loose fasteners, surface wear, or minor rust before they develop into costly repairs.
Signs that your commercial metal roof may need attention include:
-
Leaks or water stains inside your building
-
Rust, corrosion, or missing fasteners
-
Dents from hail or debris
-
Peeling paint or coating
-
Age – if your roof is near the end of its lifespan, planning a replacement can save future costs

Workmanship warranty – ensures high-quality installation
Depending on the roofing system and coating, warranties can range from 10 to 30 years, giving you peace of mind for your North Brisbane, Woodford, or Sunshine Coast property.

Choosing the Colour
When you re-roof you can keep the colour the same (or similar), or if you want to introduce a new colour scheme then it's a great opportunity to change the look of your home entirely by changing the colour of the roof. Therein lies the dilemma… what colour to choose?
Fortunately Colorbond have made the 'roof colour' decision making slightly easier with their online color charts, and free visualiser. Have a go and see what it will look like before you make your final decision.
