Tweed Coast Tile to Metal Roof Conversion
If your old tile roof is constantly leaking, cracking, or growing moss, you’re not alone. Many homeowners around here are finding that their tiled roofs just can’t keep up with the demands of coastal living. That’s why at Cudgen Roofing & Guttering, we offer complete tile to metal roof conversions that give your home a clean, modern look and much better weather resistance. Metal roofing is lighter, stronger, and better at handling storms and salt air, making it a popular upgrade for properties across the Tweed Coast. We take care of the entire process—from removing the old tiles to reinforcing the roof frame and installing your new metal roof—so you get a smooth, hassle-free experience with lasting results.
If you’re tired of chasing roof repairs and want something more practical and low-maintenance, give us a call on 0402 540 929 to talk about converting your tiled roof to metal.
Upgrade for Peace of Mind
Making the switch from tile to metal isn’t just about changing materials—it’s about upgrading to a roofing system that works better for your lifestyle and your local climate. Metal roofs are much lighter than tiles, which puts less stress on your home’s structure over time. They’re also quicker to install and much easier to maintain. We can help you choose a colour and profile that suits your home, improve your insulation during the conversion, and even update your gutters and ventilation if needed. Whether you’re prepping your property for storm season or simply want a roof that won’t cause problems every few months, a tile to metal conversion is a smart, long-term investment.
Want to know if your roof is suitable for conversion? Let’s chat. Call us on 0402 540 929 and we’ll take you through the options.


What are the benefits of switching from tile to metal roofing?
Metal roofs are lighter, more durable, and better suited to areas with high winds, heavy rainfall, or coastal exposure. Unlike tiles, metal sheets don’t crack, absorb water, or shift during storms. They also offer modern colour options and cleaner lines, which can improve your home’s curb appeal. Maintenance is minimal, and long-term performance tends to be more consistent, especially in climates like northern NSW.
Will my roof need structural reinforcement for a tile to metal conversion?
Because metal is significantly lighter than tile, most roofs don’t require major reinforcement—if anything, the load on the structure is reduced. However, the battens may need replacing or adjusting to suit the new roofing profile. A roofing contractor will inspect your framing to make sure it’s in good condition and make any modifications needed to ensure a safe and secure installation.
Is it cheaper to convert to metal or replace with new tiles?
While initial costs for tile and metal roofing can be similar, metal roofing tends to be more cost-effective in the long run. It requires less maintenance, lasts longer in harsh conditions, and is quicker to install—saving on labour. Converting to metal also allows for optional upgrades like improved insulation or integrated guttering, which can further boost your home’s energy efficiency and overall value.
