Words cannot describe the exceptional experience I had with Northern Local Trades Group when they installed a Colourbond roof on my home. The entire process was handled with seamless precision by Temo. The project management was amazing. The roofing and building specialists were available and informative, keeping me in the loop with the stages of the roof replacement.
As the Secretary of a Strata Committee the process of obtaining quotes for maintenance of Strata dwellings is fraught with many difficulties. I have found Temo and his teams at the NR Trades Group personable, professional and reliable. At this stage of our process, and before any quotes have been accepted, Temo and his teams have exceeded my expectations.
These guys did a great job. They were excellent communicators and the work was completed really efficiently. Our new guttering looks and works beautifully. I highly recommend them.
The guys were great to deal with, kept me informed on progress, dealt with difficult weather conditions, and importantly, did a great professional job. We recommend this company to others.
Recently had the roof rescrewed, painted and restored with new flashing added. I’m really happy with the teams who completed the roof restoration and the painting including the electricians who removed and reinstalled the solar. The communication from NR trades was excellent and I was happy with the advice I was given and the end product. Thanks to all.
We are pleased to recommend this group - communication was prompt, options fully explained, the roof painting result met all of our expectations.
Unsure about roof repairs, materials, or maintenance? Get straightforward answers below.
Pressure cleaning helps with surface grime and moss, but it won’t fix cracked or loose ridge caps. In most cases, you’ll need a combination of professional cleaning and proper roof repairs, particularly re-bedding and repointing, to restore both appearance and structural integrity. We’ll assess the condition first and recommend what’s needed to get your roof looking and performing its best.
Looks are part of it, but Tile to Metal Conversions offer more. Metal roofs are lighter (less structural strain), extremely durable against storms, lower maintenance, and often reflect heat better, potentially saving on cooling costs compared to older tiles.
Yes, quality gutter guards significantly reduce leaf buildup. Combined with our seamless, continuous gutters made onsite, they create a very low-maintenance system, protecting your home from overflow damage.
We always do a thorough roof assessment first. While most roofs are suitable, we check the structure and condition before installing Solar Panels. If needed, we can perform necessary Roof Repairs & Restorations to ensure a safe, long-lasting solar setup.
Often, yes! Our Industrial Roof Coatings include treatments that neutralise surface rust and provide a durable, waterproof, heat-reflective membrane, significantly extending the life of Metal Roofing without costly replacement.
