Glenfield grew fast from the 1960s to the 1980s, and its roofs show it. Street after street has concrete tile of the same age, with Decramastic and corrugated iron among it. Those roofs have reached the age where ridge mortar cracks, tile bedding lets go and moss takes hold on the shaded side.
Glenfield is on the North Shore, in the Kaipātiki area. It is often mixed up with Glen Eden in West Auckland. If you are in Glen Eden, our roofers Glen Eden page is the one for you.
Local insight: Much of Glenfield was built from the 1960s to the 1980s, so a large share of its homes have concrete tile roofs of the same age. Ridge mortar, tile bedding and the tile surface are wearing out together across the suburb, which makes rebedding, repointing and moss treatment the most common Glenfield roofing jobs.
Most Glenfield homes were built between the 1960s and the 1980s, so their roofs are now 40 to 60 years old. At that age the question is whether to keep the roof going or replace it.
Repair and restore when the tiles are sound. Rebedding and repointing the ridges, replacing cracked tiles, treating the moss and recoating fixes what fails first on concrete tile. It costs far less than a new roof.
Re-roof when the roof itself has failed. Signs include many porous or cracked tiles, perished underlay, Decramastic that has lost its chip and rusted, or leaks that keep coming back. Re-roofing and roof replacement are the same job: the old roof comes off and a new one goes on, usually Colorsteel long-run.
We tell you which one your roof needs after a free inspection, and we put the reasons in writing.
| Service | Typical Auckland price | When it is the right choice |
|---|---|---|
| Tile roof repairs | $350–$65,000 | Re-bedding and re-pointing ridges, replacing cracked tiles |
| Roof painting | $1,500–$5,000 | The tiles are sound; the surface coating has worn away |
| Roof restoration | $3,500–$12,000 | Clean, ridge repairs, moss treatment and recoat in one job |
| Re-roofing (roof replacement) | $12,000–$45,000 | Tiles or Decramastic have failed, or leaks keep returning |
Concrete tile is Glenfield's most common roof, and its weak point is the ridge. Once the mortar cracks, wind lifts the caps and rain gets in under them. We re-bed and re-point ridges as part of our tile roof repairs across the North Shore, and replace cracked tiles with matching ones where they can still be sourced.
South-facing roof planes in Glenfield get little winter sun. Moss and lichen settle there first, and the porous concrete holds the water. A soft-wash moss treatment with a residual biocide clears it without the damage a high-pressure wash can do to old tiles.
Some Glenfield homes from the 1970s and 1980s have Decramastic roofs. When the stone chip wears off, the steel underneath rusts at the laps and nail holes. We check for that before quoting, so you know whether a recoat will last or whether a re-roof is the honest answer.

Most 1960s–80s concrete tile roofs in Glenfield are still sound underneath. If the tiles are sound, rebedding and repointing the ridges, replacing cracked tiles, treating the moss and recoating gives the roof a long second life. Re-roofing makes sense when many tiles are porous or cracked, the underlay has failed, or leaks keep coming back. We tell you which applies after a free inspection, in writing.
Decramastic tiles are pressed steel with a stone-chip coating. While the coating is intact, a clean and recoat keeps the roof going. Once the chip has worn off and the steel is rusting at the laps, repairs only buy time, and the usual answer is a re-roof in Colorsteel long-run.
