Why choose Giant for roofing

  • Licensed for roofing and drainage

    Roofing (stormwater) and drainage are both classes on our plumbing licence, so we handle the roof and the stormwater that runs off it in the one job.

  • Finding where the water gets in

    We trace the leak to the box gutter, flashing or sheeting it comes from, and check the rest of the roof for anything else likely to leak.

  • Planned around a building in use

    We plan re-roofs with you before we start and, where the site needs it, schedule the work outside normal hours to keep disruption down.

Frequently asked questions

Can you fix an overflowing box gutter?

We repair or replace the box gutter, and clear or repair the downpipes and stormwater drains it runs into.

Can you repair a leak without re-roofing?

Where the roof itself is sound, we repair the leak on its own. Where the sheeting has failed, we quote the replacement before any work starts.

Can you replace skylights on their own?

We replace skylights and skylight sheeting on their own, or as part of a re-roof.

Do you replace tiled roofs with metal?

Yes. We carry out tile-to-metal roof conversions on homes across Melbourne, and replace the gutters and downpipes in the same job where they need it.

Do you take on roofing for builders?

We carry out re-roofs and roof plumbing for builders on larger projects, and for facility managers, owners and homeowners.
