This 30-second film shows our team re-roofing a hip-roofed home in Mount Albert, Auckland, in Colorsteel corrugated: the new sheets going on over new underlay, then the finished roof. The job took three days on site in January 2026, and we quoted $35,000 incl. GST for it.
Every clip is our own footage, filmed on the roof during the job. It starts with our crew laying new Colorsteel sheets over the new underlay, with scaffolding and edge protection around the house, then walks across the finished roof and its new hip and ridge cappings. The film has no sound; the captions describe what is on screen. The scaffolding, edge protection and harnesses you can see follow WorkSafe guidance for working at height.

End-of-life corrugated iron on a multi-hip roof, where the hips and ridges had corroded worst of all. A roof in that state is past repair, so the whole roof was replaced rather than patched. The before photo of the old roof is in the case study below, beside the stripped framing, the new sheets going on and the finished roof.
Old iron removed, new underlay laid, new Colorsteel corrugated sheets installed and every hip and ridge re-formed and capped — three days on site in January 2026. Our house re-roofing service page sets out the full process, the materials we use and current prices, and our guide to re-roofing a house in Auckland explains each step for homeowners.
We quoted $35,000 incl. GST for this job; the price included labour, carpentry and varnishing work. That is one job's price, not a standard one: re-roofing an Auckland house generally costs $12,000–$45,000+ + GST, depending on the roof's size, the material and the framing underneath; our new roof cost guide breaks that down by home size.

This job took three days on site in January 2026. How long a re-roof takes depends on the size and shape of the roof, the weather and what is found under the old roofing, so we give a timeframe with each written quote rather than a standard figure.

Re-roofing means working at height for days, so this job had scaffolding with edge protection around the house, and the crew worked in harnesses. We plan access for every re-roof around WorkSafe guidance for working at height, and the cost of it is part of the written quote.
