Expert Roof Replacement in Glebe
The Inner West's older housing stock — terraces, semi-detacheds, and federation homes — presents unique roofing challenges that require tradespeople familiar with heritage roofing systems.
Crown Roofers has been replacing roofs across Glebe and the wider Inner West area for over 15 years. Our licensed tradespeople bring the expertise and equipment needed to handle any job — from a single tile repair to a complete roof replacement — with minimal disruption and maximum quality.
Every job in Glebeis quoted in writing before work begins. We don't do verbal estimates or surprise invoices. Our 10-year workmanship guarantee means if anything goes wrong due to our installation, we fix it — at no cost to you.
New Roofs & Full Roof Replacement Across Sydney
Crown Roofers delivers complete new roofs and full roof replacements for Sydney homes — strip and re-roof, never an overlay. Whether you're replacing an aging tile roof with a new Colorbond steel roof, restoring a heritage home with a new terracotta tile roof, or upgrading a 1970s concrete tile roof to a new low-pitch Colorbond system, we deliver a watertight, warrantied new roof that lifts the value of your home.
Every new roof we deliver follows a strict quality process. We strip the existing roof back to the rafters, inspect the structure and sarking, replace any rotten battens, install a complete new sarking layer, lay your new roof system to manufacturer specification, and finish with new flashings, ridge capping, gutters and downpipes where needed. The result is a new roof that performs as a system — not a patchwork.
New Roof Options for Sydney Homes
- Tile-to-Colorbond conversions — the most popular Sydney upgrade. Lighter weight, lower maintenance, BAL-rated for bushfire zones
- Full Colorbond steel new roofs in any of 22 BlueScope colours, including marine-grade Ultra for coastal homes
- Concrete tile new roof installation with new Boral, Bristile or Monier tiles
- Terracotta tile new roofs and heritage-matched restorations
- Zincalume corrugated steel new roofs for traditional Australian homes and rural-style architecture
- Standing-seam metal new roofs for contemporary architect-designed homes

How Much Does a New Roof Cost in Sydney?
Tile-to-Colorbond conversions and new Colorbond roofs typically cost $15,000–$35,000 depending on roof size, pitch and complexity. Full new tile roofs (concrete or terracotta) run $12,000–$28,000. The wide ranges reflect roof area, access difficulty, scaffolding requirements and the specific material chosen. Heritage-listed homes and large two-storey homes in suburbs like Strathfield, Mosman, Vaucluse and Castle Hill sit at the higher end of the range.
Every new roof quote is itemised, written, and fixed-price. We do not work on hourly rates and there are no hidden extras. The price you're quoted is the price you pay.
How Long Does a New Roof Take?
Most residential Sydney new roofs take 2–7 working days. A simple single-storey gable Colorbond new roof can complete in 2–3 days. A complex two-storey Colorbond new roof with multiple valleys typically takes 4–5 days. Full new tile roofs take 5–7 days. Large heritage homes, scaffolding-required jobs and multi-unit strata jobs can run longer — we'll give you a precise day-by-day schedule in the quote.
