Premium roof installation in Double Bay 2028, Colorbond, terracotta tile and slate finishes fitted with the care heritage homes and harbourside properties deserve. Licensed, insured, and known across Woollahra for quality work.
Double Bay isn’t an ordinary roofing job. From the Victorian and Edwardian homes near Transvaal Avenue to the Art Deco apartment blocks along New South Head Road and the contemporary penthouses looking out over the harbour, every roof in this suburb tells a different story. Tomkat Roofing has been installing across the Eastern Suburbs long enough to know that a one-size-fits-all approach simply doesn’t suit Double Bay.
Our team understands the heritage controls Woollahra Council applies, works neatly on the tight, sloping streets around the village, and delivers roofs that protect what’s underneath while matching the character of what’s around. From quote to clean-up, you get senior, qualified people on your project, not subcontracted shortcuts.
At Tomkat Roofing, we cover residential, commercial and architectural roofing across Double Bay, catering to residential, commercial, and new construction projects. Here’s a breakdown of our key offerings:
For modern renovations, rear additions and contemporary builds in Double Bay, we fit premium Colorbond and steel roofing systems. Marine-grade fasteners, concealed-fix profiles and full thermal insulation packages give you a roof that looks sharp and copes with harbour breezes year-round.
Tile is the right call for the suburb’s heritage and character homes. We install terracotta and concrete tiles using traditional techniques where the property calls for it, with modern sarking, batten upgrades and waterproofing layers underneath, so the finish looks authentic but performs to today’s standards.
For boutiques, restaurants, fitness studios and strata properties around Bay Street and Knox Street, we deliver roof installations scheduled around your operating hours. Durable materials, low-impact work practices and reliable certifications for body corporate sign-off.
For new construction roofing, we work closely with builders to deliver the best roofing solution, ensuring protection and style. We offer a variety of materials, including Colorbond and tile, to fit your new home's design, ensuring top-quality installation.

Posted on Google Helen O'ConnorTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have had a fantastic experience with this business from start to finish. They are professional experienced, very fair and reasonable. We needed to replace the roof on our outdoor deck which was slightly tricky. Their advice and suggestions regarding product to use was sage. After a downpour there was a bit of a leak between the main building and the deck roof which they came out to fix which resolved the issue. There have been plenty of downpours since and everything is fine. I would highly recommend this company without hesitation. They are excellent.Posted on Google Ali BugejaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tomkat did a great job and they were very pleasant to deal with.

Great communications.Posted on Google Christine PuckeringTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thankyou to TomKat Roofing and particulary Scott who did an excellent job repairing my roof. I had a water stain on the ceiling in one of my rooms, I called TomKat Roofing. They sent out a technician (Tim I think his name was) to have a look at the roof and that was followed by a very clear & comprehensive quote with what work needed to be done. The quote was supported by photos of the roof showing the problem areas. Tim was very polite & knowledgeable. He explained to me what needed to be done as a matter of urgency and what would need to be done for maintenance purpose and he showed me the photos. The price was very reasonable for the work that needed to be done. Scott carried out the repair work. Scott is very pleasant to deal and he knew exactly what he was doing. He worked just about all day to finish the job for me and I was very happy with the results and my roof problems have now been solved. I was very impressed with everyone I dealt with, from the ladies in the office who prepared my quote to Scott who completed the job , they are all very friendly and most of all they know their stuff. I think they're an asset to TomKat. I highly recommend TomKat Roofing and I would definitely use them again.Posted on Google Peter ThomasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tomkat Roofing was a great place to do business with from the initial phone call, to Gary who came out to give me a quote arrived on time and was very helpfull in his advise.The job was completed in a highly professional manner. I will have no problems using this company for any future roofing work. Great work to the whole team at TomkatPosted on Google Sully 71Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I contacted the team at TomKat roofing as I noticed a small leak in my daughters room during the recent storms and I was pleasantly greeted over the phone by the admin team who took down all my details and soon after I had the scheduling team call and arrange a suitable time to come out and review my concerns. The team promptly identified what the issue was and fixed it promptly. I can’t thank the team enough and whilst I hope I never need to call them again due to a roof issue, I would gladly recommend them to anyone looking for professional workmanship.Posted on Google Mike CohenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend Tomkat Roofing for an efficient, well priced and solid quality roof replacement. My old, droopy and leaking terracotta tile roof is now straight and strong with a reinforced structure, new corrugated colorbond roof, gutters, facias, downpipes and leaf guard. Some of the key positive experiences I had with Tomkat Roofing are: The efficient and friendly office staff always responded quickly and kept me informed of the progress and when the tradesmen would be onsite. At the start of the job, within a single work day, they had a team of roofers and carpenters to get the old tiles off, the roof structure repaired/reinforced and the colorbond sheets with insulation secured so that my home was protected from the weather. Fortunately the weather was clear for a few days, but it was reassuring to know that they were prepared to work incredibly fast in the summer sun to keep my home safe. The site supervisors were always friendly and took the time to explain everything to me and respond to any concerns or questions I had about the job. Being an older build home, I had a few items that needed particular attention and everything was completed to my satisfaction. A word of advice for home owners looking to get a roof replaced with Tomkat Roofing: Raise as many of your objectives and concerns as you can as early as possible. I found the Tomkat team very responsive to my overthinking mind and everything I wanted to get done was outlined in the quote and addressed during the job. Also, they do tidy up and take away all the waste building material during and at the end of the job, which is great. But be prepared each evening to clean up smaller items that take time to find, like random screws or nails that were dropped, if you have children or pets accessing the area around your home in the evenings. It is unreasonable to expect the workers to find every dropped item each day if you also want the job done quickly.

Costs vary significantly across Double Bay because the suburb mixes heritage tile, slate, modern Colorbond and flat-membrane systems. Heritage homes often require specific tile sourcing. For an accurate quote, we recommend booking a roof inspection, where our team can assess your property and provide a detailed, no-obligation estimate.
Most Double Bay residential installations are completed in 2 to 5 working days. Heritage tile and slate jobs, larger architectural homes, or strata properties can run longer. For a typical residential roof, the installation process usually takes between 1 to 3 days. Larger, more complex installations may take longer. We always strive to complete our installations efficiently without compromising on quality.
For Double Bay’s harbourside conditions, Colorbond roofing works very well on modern Double Bay properties, while terracotta tile and slate are usually the right choice for heritage homes. The best material depends on your home’s era, the streetscape, and any Woollahra Council heritage controls. Metal roofing, including Colorbond, is also resistant to fire, moisture, and salt, making it ideal for coastal areas. Tile roofs are another great option for insulation and longevity, while metal roofs offer low maintenance and strength. Our team can help you choose the best material based on your property’s needs and your budget.
Most like-for-like replacements in Double Bay can be done under Complying Development, but heritage-listed properties and any change in roof form, height or materials usually require a DA through Woollahra Council. We handle the paperwork and council liaison for you. Our team will manage all the necessary paperwork and ensure that your roof installation complies with local council regulations. We make the process simple by taking care of all permits for you.
A Colorbond roof can last up to 30 to 50 years, depending on the environment and maintenance. The high-quality steel used in Colorbond roofing is designed to withstand Sydney’s weather conditions, including intense sun, rain, and coastal winds. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning and checking for damage, can help extend its lifespan.
We offer a comprehensive warranty on both the materials and workmanship of all our roof installations. Our Colorbond roofs come with a manufacturer’s warranty, typically lasting up to 25 years, depending on the product. Additionally, we provide a workmanship warranty to ensure that our installation meets the highest standards of quality. If any issues arise, we’re here to help.
Yes. We hold a current NSW roofing licence, full public liability insurance and workers’ compensation, plus all the safety certifications required for working at heights on Double Bay’s two and three-storey homes. We provide documentation before any work begins. We are also insured for your peace of mind, ensuring that all work is carried out safely and professionally. Trust Tomkat Roofing for a reliable, risk-free roof installation experience.
