Built for Wellington’s Worst
Wellington throws everything at your roof — gale-force wind, salt air, sideways rain, even hail. We know what holds up and what fails because we’ve roofed this city inside and out. Orkney roofs aren’t just built to code — they’re built to take a beating. You’ve seen our work everywhere. You might even be living under one.

We specialise in both new roofing and re-roofing for residential and commercial properties. Whether it’s a new build or replacing an old roof, we handle the full process — from removal through to installation of metal or membrane systems like TPO and torch-on.
Yes. All our work is carried out by licensed professionals and meets or exceeds New Zealand Building Code standards. We also follow strict health and safety practices on every job.
It depends on the material and conditions, but most modern roofs especially Colorsteel or membrane systems can last 20 to 40 years or more with proper maintenance.
Your new roof or re-roof will be 100% watertight. If it leaks due to our workmanship, we’ll fix it immediately — free of charge.

We handle everything. Safe removal of the old roof, inspection of underlying structures, supply and installation of new roofing, flashings, and tidy site cleanup.
