Mt Victoria is known for its character homes, steep sections, and exposure to Wellington’s strong winds and heavy rain. These conditions put real pressure on older roofs, and a partial repair can only go so far. At Kings Roofing, we specialise in full reroofing solutions that address the root cause rather than masking the symptoms.
We work with a range of roofing materials including long-run steel, Colorsteel, and roof tiles, helping you choose the right product for your home’s style and the local climate. Every job is planned carefully, completed to a high standard, and backed by our workmanship guarantee.
Many homeowners wait too long before considering a full reroof. If your roof is showing any of the following signs, it may be time to replace rather than repair.
Persistent leaks after repairs, visible rust or corrosion across a large area, cracked or broken tiles in multiple spots, and sagging roof sections are all clear indicators that patching is no longer a practical fix. In older Mt Victoria homes, ageing iron or asbestos-based roofing materials also present safety and performance concerns that make reroofing the responsible choice.
A roof that is 30 or more years old, even if it looks okay from the ground, may have underlying issues that only become visible during a professional inspection. Kings Roofing offers honest assessments so you know exactly what your roof needs, with no pressure to spend more than necessary.

Corrugated iron and long-run steel are popular choices for reroofing in and across Wellington. They perform well in high-wind conditions, drain water efficiently, and are available in a range of Colorsteel profiles and colours that suit both heritage and modern homes.
Kings Roofing installs long-run steel roofing to manufacturer specifications, ensuring your new roof performs as intended for decades. We also handle all flashings, ridgecapping, and valley work to give you a fully weathertight finish.
“},{“heading”:”Roof Tile Reroofing and Replacement”,”content”:”
Concrete and clay roof tiles add character and excellent insulation to homes in Mt Victoria. When tile roofs reach the end of their lifespan or suffer widespread damage, a full reroof is often more cost-effective than continuing to source and replace individual tiles.
Our team carefully removes the existing tiles, inspects and replaces the underlying sarking and battens as needed, and installs new tiles with proper alignment and waterproofing. The result is a roof that looks great and performs reliably in Wellington’s wet winters.

A reroof is also the right time to address what sits underneath your roofing material. Old or deteriorated underlayment and sarking reduce your roof’s ability to manage moisture and can lead to mould, rot, and heat loss inside your home.
Kings Roofing replaces underlayment and sarking as part of our full reroofing service, using modern breathable membranes that comply with New Zealand building standards. This gives your new roof a solid, compliant foundation that protects your home for the long term.

We help you choose the right roofing material for your Mt Victoria home, taking into account the building's style, your budget, and Wellington's weather conditions. We explain the pros and cons of each option clearly so you can make a confident decision.
Our crew removes the old roofing material carefully, inspects the roof structure underneath, and replaces any damaged decking, sarking, or battens before installing your new roof. All flashings, ridgecapping, and penetrations are sealed and finished to a weathertight standard.
Once the new roof is installed, we carry out a final quality inspection to confirm everything meets our standards and yours. The site is fully cleaned up, all waste is removed, and we walk you through the completed work before we leave.
