How much does roof painting cost in Tweed Heads?

Most single-storey roofs in Tweed Heads land between $3,500 and $7,500 depending on roof size, pitch, access and whether the tiles or metal need repairs, pressure cleaning and a sealer coat before the membrane goes on.

How long does a roof coating last?

A properly prepared roof — cleaned, primed and finished with a two-coat membrane system — typically holds up for 10–15 years in coastal Tweed Heads conditions. Cheap single-coat jobs over dirty tiles often fail inside three.

Do you repair broken tiles and rebed ridge caps first?

Yes. Cracked tiles, loose ridge caps and failed pointing are repaired before any coating is applied. Painting over a failing roof only hides the problem for a season.

Are you licensed and insured to work in Tweed Heads?

Yes. Munn & Co. Finishes holds an NSW painting licence and a QLD QBCC licence, and we carry full public liability insurance. Licence and insurance details are supplied in writing with every Tweed Heads quote.

Roof Painting vs Roof Replacement — Which Is Right for Your Home?

A roof repaint can add 15 years to your tiles for a fraction of replacement cost — but only if the roof is sound. Here's how to tell.

When a roof repaint makes sense

If your tiles or sheeting are structurally sound — no major cracks, no widespread rust, ridge caps intact — a repaint with a proper membrane system can extend life by 10–15 years at 20–30% of replacement cost.

When replacement is the smarter spend

There are conditions where painting is throwing money at a problem.

Widespread tile cracking or delamination
Rust through on Colorbond / Trimdek panels
Sagging battens or rafters under the sheeting
Active leaks that aren't from flashings
Asbestos cement roofing (paint is not the answer)

What a proper roof repaint includes

A real roof repaint isn't just paint — it's pressure-wash, ridge re-bedding and re-pointing, rust treatment, sealer coat and two membrane finish coats. Quotes that skip steps come back to bite within 3 years.
