Why Choose Us for Metal Roof Restoration in Como?

Como's 1990s infill homes are now 25 to 35 years old, and that Colorbond is chalking and fading. The coating's breaking down, and rust spots are starting at screws and overlaps. We remove the chalking back to sound metal and apply a three-coat Dulux Acratex system, checking wall junction flashings carefully as we go rather than painting over a problem there. For a typical single-storey Como home, metal roof restoration runs $9,200 to $12,200. It gives Colorbond another 15 years of protection and unified gutters and fascia to match. It's a solid investment if your roof is faded and rust is starting, though a clean and repaint won't fix corrosion that's already through the sheet.

Como's 1990s infill homes and renovated properties feature Colorbond that's now 20 to 35 years old. The metal shows chalking and fading, with rust developing at screw points and overlaps where moisture collects. River humidity accelerates corrosion, particularly on north and east-facing slopes exposed to salt-laden air. A full restoration, surface preparation back to sound metal and a three-coat system, checking flashings closely rather than coating over a weak one, runs $9,200 to $12,200 for single-storey homes, typically $13,000 to $17,000 for two-storey.

Local Como Expertise

Como stretches along the southern bank of the Canning River just 6km from Perth CBD, making it one of Perth's most accessible riverside suburbs. Subdivided as the Como Estate in 1905, the area's housing tells the story of decades of riverside growth - Federation and interwar character homes from the 1920s and 1930s, solid brick-and-tile homes from the 1950s-1970s, and pockets of 1990s infill development where original homes were subdivided. Towering river red gums, swamp paperbarks, and mature jacarandas form a dense canopy across the suburb, creating beautiful but challenging conditions for roofs. At Roof Restorers Perth, we've restored hundreds of roofs across Como, Manning, and Salter Point with 15+ years of team experience, with particular expertise in the older terracotta and concrete tile systems that define this riverside suburb.

The result: Restored roofs engineered to handle Como's high humidity, heavy leaf load, and diverse housing ages - protected by Dulux Acratex coatings with 15-year manufacturer warranty.

Benefits of Metal Roof Restoration for Como Properties

Brings faded Colorbond back

Colorbond chalks and fades after years of Perth sun. A proper restoration strips off the chalking and dirt, primes the surface, and recoats it so it looks new again, for far less than re-sheeting.

Protects the surface, not just paint

A fresh primer and Acratex topcoat seal the cleaned surface against Perth's UV and weather, so the colour holds instead of chalking away. Clean and repaint only, we don't do rust remediation or sheet repairs.

Dulux Acratex, 15-year warranty

We're accredited applicators and use the metal-roof Acratex system, which carries a 15-year manufacturer warranty when applied properly. We apply it properly.

Cheaper than replacement

If the sheets are sound and it's just faded and chalking, restoration costs a fraction of a full re-roof and adds years to the roof's life.

Our Metal Roof Restoration Process in Como

  1. 1

    Inspect and quote

    We check that the sheets are sound and the coating's just faded, then give you a fixed price and tell you honestly if it's restorable or past it.

    Why it matters: A recoat only makes sense if the steel underneath is sound.

  2. 2

    High-pressure clean

    High-pressure clean to strip chalking, dirt and surface oxidation back to a sound, paintable surface.

    Why it matters: Coatings only bond to clean, sound metal.

  3. 3

    Prime

    A metal-grade primer goes down across the cleaned roof to key the topcoat to the steel.

    Why it matters: The primer is what makes the coating last.

  4. 4

    Topcoat

    Two coats of the Acratex metal membrane in your chosen colour, applied to spec for an even, durable finish.

    Why it matters: Full film thickness is what the warranty depends on.

My Como home has a 1990s Colorbond roof. What does restoration involve?

Chalking removal and surface preparation back to sound metal, three-coat application, and a close check of wall-junction flashings, flagging anything genuinely worn rather than coating over it. Gutter and fascia coatings match the roof. A single-storey restoration typically costs $9,200 to $12,200. Two-storey is $13,000 to $17,000. The job takes 5-7 days depending on complexity.

How long will a restored metal roof last in Como's river humidity?

A properly restored Colorbond roof with three-coat protection lasts 12 to 15 years before maintenance is needed. Riverside properties with dense tree canopy may see chalking return sooner due to sustained moisture and algae growth. Regular professional cleaning every 2-3 years extends the life of the coating significantly.

Can a faded Colorbond roof be restored?

Yes. Faded, chalking Colorbond is one of the most common metal-roof jobs in Perth. We clean it back, prime it, and recoat it with Dulux Acratex so it looks new, without the cost of re-sheeting.

How much does metal roof restoration cost in Perth?

It depends on the roof's size, pitch, condition, and access. Call 08 6388 4492 or request a quote for a fixed price. It's well below the cost of replacing the roof when the sheets are still sound.

What if my metal roof has rust?

Our metal service is a clean and repaint for sound, faded Colorbond, we don't do rust remediation or sheet repairs. If the sheets have rusted through in places, a recoat won't fix that, they need replacing, and we'll tell you straight if that's the case.

How long does it last?

A properly applied Acratex metal system carries a 15-year manufacturer warranty and typically lasts beyond it.

Is restoration better than replacing the roof?

If the sheets are structurally sound and it's just faded and chalking, restoration is the cheaper, sensible option. If the steel's rusting through or failing, replacement makes more sense. We give you a straight assessment.
