Solar on metal roofs, done right.
Solar panel installation and battery storage fitted to Colorbond® and Zincalume® metal roofs with safe, leak-free penetrations and tidy, warranty-backed workmanship for homes, strata and commercial properties.
Why fit solar to a metal roof?
Extending the life of existing metal roofs without premature, expensive replacement. Here is why Australian property owners and strata committees trust our method.
Most metal roofs can be fully revitalised for a fraction of the cost of total replacement, restoring structural resilience, Colorbond® aesthetics, and UV protection.
Leak-Free Penetrations
Every roof screw is sealed with the correct grade of flashing and weatherproofing so your metal roof stays watertight for the life of the system.
Roof-Friendly Mounting
We use mounting systems designed for corrugated and standing seam profiles that grip the ribs without crushing or distorting the sheet.
Battery Storage
We install battery storage so you can store excess solar and keep the lights on during outages — sized to your usage and roof capacity.
Warranty-Backed
Our workmanship is guaranteed, and we coordinate with panel and inverter warranties so your whole system is covered.
Our Process
Our systematic 5-step methodology for solar panel and battery installation on metal roofs.
Roof & Shade Assessment
We inspect your metal roof profile, orientation, pitch and shading to design the best panel layout and battery size for your usage.
System Design & Quote
We specify panels, inverter and battery, confirm roof load capacity, and provide a fixed-price quote with expected output.
Roof Preparation
We check sheet condition, clean the install area, and mark out penetrations to suit the mounting system and roof ribs.
Panel & Battery Install
Panels are mounted with sealed, roof-grade fixings, the inverter and battery are installed, and all cabling is tidied and protected.
Commission & Handover
We test the system, confirm leak-free penetrations, and walk you through monitoring and warranty so you're ready to generate.
What does solar on a metal roof involve?
Fitting solar to a metal roof is different to fitting it to a tile roof. The mounting, the penetrations and the sealing all need to suit corrugated, Klip-Lok or standing seam profiles — done wrong, it leaks.
Hiroof combines roofing expertise with solar installation so the roof side is done properly: correct flashing, correct sealants, and mounting that grips the ribs without distorting the sheet.
We also install battery storage, sized to your usage and roof capacity, so you can store excess solar and keep running through outages.
