Dark long-run metal roof on a Wellington house against a blue sky

Metal Roofing in Kapiti Coast

We specify the roof for your exposure, then build it to last, across Kapiti Coast from Paraparaumu to Otaihanga.

Beachside Kapiti homes need coatings and fixings chosen for salt spray; homes further inland can often use a standard specification. We check your distance from the sea before quoting.

Metal Roofing on Kapiti Coast roofs

When we re-roof a beachside Kapiti home we specify the coating and fixings for the salt exposure. Inland homes in Waikanae or Otaki can often use a standard specification. Mixed roofs can be brought onto one consistent roof at the same time.

Long-run metal is the standard roof across the Wellington region for good reason: it is light, it sheds water and wind well when fixed properly, and it suits everything from villas to modern homes.

Many Kapiti homes were built as beach houses and later extended, so we see mixed roofs, older iron next to newer additions, and junctions between them that need careful flashing.

Kapiti Coast exposure: Beach suburbs from Paekakariki to Otaki Beach are exposed to salt spray and wind off the Tasman; inland areas such as Waikanae, Te Horo and Otaki town are more sheltered.

BRANZ gives minimum roof pitches of 8 degrees for corrugated and 3 degrees for most trapezoidal profiles. (BRANZ, Replacing a profiled metal roof)

What to look for

  • Profile: corrugated for most villas and bungalows, trapezoidal for lower pitches and long runs
  • Coating: matched to your corrosion exposure zone
  • Fixings and washers compatible with the sheet and coating

Every job follows the same steps: we look at the roof, photograph what we find, send a written quote, then send photos of the finished work. More about metal Roofing.

Metal Roofing in Kapiti Coast: questions

How do I book metal Roofing in Kapiti Coast?

Call 04 000 0000 or send the form with your Kapiti Coast suburb and what you have noticed. We look at the roof first, then send photos and a written quote before any work starts.

Corrugated or trapezoidal: which is better?

Neither is better everywhere. Corrugated suits the look of older homes and steeper pitches; trapezoidal profiles handle lower pitches. Your roof pitch often decides it.
