Frequently Asked Questions

We’re looking for one of the best metal roofers in Brisbane for a fair and reasonable price. Why should we pick you?

We are a team of highly experienced, quality-focused tradespeople. Quality, communication and care are our leading values. We consistently deliver excellent results using only high-quality Australian-made BlueScope steel, so your roof is both beautifully finished and safe-guarded from the elements. You can find some of our testimonials here (on our main page, or scroll down this page), and our Google reviews are over here. When it comes to safety, we use our own engineer-certified fall-protection system. We also have a comprehensive workplace health and safety system and processes in place, as well as all necessary insurances to protect each other and your property. Your satisfaction and our attention to quality and care is most important to us.

Do I need building approval to replace my roof?

Yes, you will need building approval to replace a roof that is more than 20% of the entire roof area, and we can organise this for you. We organise and include:

  • QBCC Home Warranty Insurance, and

  • Council building approval and certification.

How long does it take to install a roof? And can people be home during a roof replacement?

The time it takes to complete a quality-crafted roof installation with the property left safe, clean and tidy on completion depends on the size and complexity of the roofing system. A roof replacement can take anywhere between three days and two weeks. Residents can be home during the removal and replacement roof process with the exception of an asbestos roof removal, in which case no one can be home while the asbestos roof is being removed during work hours.

Will our home or asset be safe from the weather during the roof removal and replacement process?

Yes, your property will be safe from the elements during any roofing work, and we only remove what we are able to replace in one day. We monitor the weather in the lead up to the project’s start day, and, if necessary, we will reschedule if wet or extremely windy weather is forecast and likely to be wet or windy all day.

How long is Bostock Metal Roofing’s workmanship warranty? And how long is Colorbond’s warranty?

Our warranty is ten years on workmanship from the time of installation with newly installed materials. Colorbond warranty is up to thirty-five years on Colorbond material products.

What is your lead time? How soon can you replace our roof?

Our lead time most often depends on the size of your project, so we recommend giving Saxon a call on 0408 896 001 or send an email to our office to discuss your project and how long we’ll need to complete the work.

— Sophia, Client from Brisbane Queensland
Our late-1800s character home’s roof needed to be replaced after being hail damaged. From the first time Saxon attended, it was apparent how professional the service was going to be. The finished rectification works delivered a functionally updated and beautiful end-product that still retained the historic hallmarks of our original roof. Saxon and his team went above and beyond. The craftsmanship was outstanding and the attention to detail left little to be desired. We are truly very happy with the end result and would not hesitate to call upon Saxon once again for any future roofing works
