The Waterproofing Experts
1800 326 723A cost-effective, compliant and long-term roofing solution, without removing your existing roof
A metal roof overlay is the smarter alternative to re-roofing for commercial, industrial, and strata buildings. Instead of tearing off the existing roof, a new PVC or membrane system is installed directly over the top, delivering a durable, watertight upgrade with minimal disruption, no business shutdown, and significant cost savings.
With more than 20 years’ experience across complex assets, Danrae Group specialises in engineered overlay systems that extend roof life, improve performance, and meet compliance requirements.

Signs your roof needs more than repairs
Roof repairs and patching can temporarily fix a problem — but they rarely offer a long-term solution.
If your building has ANY of the following, an overlay may be the better option:
-
Recurring roof leaks
-
Rusted or corroded roof sheets
-
Standing water or drainage issues
-
Failed sealant or penetrations
-
Increased heat load in summer
-
A roof approaching end of service life
-
Repeated repair costs
-
Restricted access that makes re-roofing difficult
Overlay systems provide a durable alternative to repeated roof repairs and remediation.
