Metal Tile Roof Painting

Restore, Protect & Extend the Life of Your Metal Tile Roof

Metal tile roofs are a popular and durable choice for Kiwi homes, but over time they can fade, corrode, and lose their protective coating. Professional painting not only revives their appearance but also seals the surface against moisture and extends their lifespan — often by 10–15 years.

Our Metal Tile Roof Painting Process

    • Apply Moss & Mould Treatment
      We start by treating the roof with a specialised solution to kill moss, mould, and lichen, preventing regrowth and ensuring a clean surface for painting.

    • Waterblast Roof & Rinse Down House
      High-pressure washing removes dirt, debris, and old, chalky paint. We also rinse down the exterior walls to prevent residue stains.

    • Treat All Rust with Black Guard Rust Converter
      Any rusted areas are treated with Black Guard rust converter to stop corrosion and prepare the metal for priming.

    • Replace Screws as Needed
      Loose, worn, or corroded screws are replaced to ensure the roof is secure and watertight.

    • Apply Roofbond Rustshield Iron Primer WB
      A high-performance, water-based metal primer is applied to all prepared areas, ensuring strong adhesion for the top coats.

    • Apply Two Coats of Roofbond Premium Finish
      We apply two coats of Roofbond Premium Finish in the customer’s chosen colour, providing a vibrant, UV-resistant, and weatherproof surface.

    • Clean Gutters
      Once painting is complete, we clean out the gutters to leave your property looking tidy and ready for the next downpour.

Important Note on Asbestos in Metal Tile Roofs

    • Some older metal tile roofs in New Zealand — particularly those manufactured before the mid-1980s — may contain asbestos in the textured coating. This was commonly used to add strength and weather resistance but is now known to be a health hazard if disturbed.

      If your roof contains asbestos:

      • Do not waterblast or sand it without professional testing and approval.

      • Only licensed asbestos removal or encapsulation specialists can work on it safely.

      • Our team can arrange asbestos testing before any preparation or painting begins.

      • If asbestos is confirmed, we can recommend safe encapsulation or removal options in compliance with New Zealand’s asbestos regulations.

      Your safety — and the safety of our team — is our top priority, so we always follow strict protocols for identifying and handling asbestos-containing roofing materials.
