Hiring a roofer in Perth: what to check

Licence check. In Western Australia, building work over $20,000 that needs a building permit must be done by a registered building contractor. Check registration on the WA Building and Energy public register before you sign.
  • Ask for a written quote that lists labour, materials and GST.
  • Get a written contract for larger jobs, and don’t pay a big deposit up front.
  • Confirm they hold public liability insurance.
  • Check the ABN on the ABN Lookup website.
  • Ask how long the job will take and who will be on site.

Typical jobs

  • Roof leak repairs
  • Tile and metal roof restorations
  • Re-roofing (tile to Colorbond and more)
  • Re-bedding and re-pointing ridge caps
  • Gutter and downpipe replacement
  • Flashing, skylight and vent repairs

What affects the cost of a roofer in Perth?

Every job is different, so prices vary. These are the main things that change what you’ll pay — use them to compare quotes like for like:

  • Roof size and pitch: steep roofs need extra safety gear and scaffolding.
  • Material: concrete or terracotta tile, metal sheeting or slate.
  • Condition of battens, sarking and gutters found once work starts.
  • Access and height, including two-storey homes and tight sites.
  • Asbestos cement roofing, which must be handled by licensed removalists.
  • Extras such as insulation, whirlybirds, skylights or new guttering.

Ask two or three local roofers for written, itemised quotes. A site visit usually gives a more accurate price than a phone estimate.

Local tips for Perth

  • Strong sun ages roof paint and sealants faster. Ask about solar-reflective colours or coatings, which can also keep the house cooler.
  • Homes built before 1990 may have asbestos cement roofing. Never let anyone pressure-clean or cut it; removing more than 10 m² requires a licensed asbestos removalist.
