Heritage Galvanised Roofing
Glegg Manufacturing creates heritage roofing for a large variety of clients around Brisbane, other parts of South East Queensland and as far north as Cairns in Tropical North Queensland.
For heritage buildings, roofing must be constructed from z600 and must comply with a range of guidelines for heritage-listed buildings.
Our team has extensive knowledge of these guidelines and has worked closely with local architects and the state’s heritage trust. We ensure each roof we create is true to the era and helps the property maintain its original charm.
Clients come to us with a number of scenarios:
- They’re carrying out a larger refurbishment:
- Roof needs fixing: For example, if the roof is leaking, corroded or is structurally deteriorating, it’s better to get it fixed so you can avoid have to demolish the entire building.
