The smarter way to fix leaking Metal Roofs: Metal Roof Overlay Systems

If you manage a commercial or strata building with an ageing metal roof, you’ve likely faced the frustration of ongoing leaks, rising maintenance costs, and operational disruptions. Traditional fixes like patching or full roof replacements can be costly and inconvenient. That’s where metal roof overlay systems come in a smarter, faster, and more cost-effective solution for waterproofing failing metal roofs.

At Danrae Group, we specialise in delivering PVC membrane overlay systems designed to extend the life of your roof without the hassle of a full replacement.

What is a Metal Roof Overlay System?

A metal roof overlay involves installing a high-performance waterproofing membrane directly over your existing metal roof. Instead of removing the old roof, we prepare the surface and overlay it with a durable, flexible PVC membrane, providing long-term waterproofing protection without major disruption to your building.

Key benefits of Metal Roof Overlays

Minimal Disruption
Unlike full roof replacements, overlay systems cause little to no interruption to your building’s operations perfect for strata complexes, offices, retail spaces, and industrial buildings.
Cost-Effective
Overlaying your roof avoids the expensive labour and waste disposal costs associated with roof removal. Plus, it reduces downtime for your business.
Fast Installation
Our team installs PVC overlays quickly and efficiently, providing a seamless waterproofing barrier in a fraction of the time compared to traditional roofing works.
Long-Term Durability
Danrae’s overlay systems are designed to withstand UV exposure, harsh weather, and thermal movement, providing a long-term solution with reduced maintenance needs.
Eco-Friendly Option
Reusing the existing roof structure reduces construction waste, making overlays a more sustainable waterproofing option.
