Extensions & Additions

Expanding your home? We’ll make the new roof look like it was always there.

Getting the Tile Match Right

The single biggest challenge with any extension roof is matching the new tiles to the existing ones. This is something many homeowners underestimate and some roofers get wrong. Tile profiles change over the years, colours fade with UV exposure, and some older profiles are no longer manufactured at all.

At Kirumba, tile matching is something we take seriously. We’ll identify your existing tile profile and manufacturer, assess the current colour against available options, and advise you honestly on what’s achievable whether that’s an exact match from current stock, the closest available modern equivalent, or a conversation about whether a full re-roof of the existing section might actually be the better outcome for a seamless result.

What We Do for Extensions & Additions

Extensions and additions come in all shapes and sizes. Whether your builder is adding a new bedroom at the back, extending the living area, pushing out over the garage, or building a full second storey, the roofing needs to be handled by someone who understands both the technical requirements and the visual importance of getting it right.

Rear & Side Additions

New rooms added to the back or side of an existing home the most common type of extension we work on. Getting the tile profile and colour to blend naturally with the original roof is the key challenge, and it’s one we handle every day.

Second Storey Additions

Building up rather than out? Second-storey additions require careful coordination with your builder around roof framing and tiling timelines. We’ve worked on plenty of these and know how to keep things moving on site.

Planning an Extension? Let's Talk Roofing

Get in touch early ideally at the planning stage so we can advise on tile matching and work within your build timeline from the start.

Working With Your Builder

Most extension and addition jobs involve a builder managing the overall project. Kirumba works comfortably within that environment. We understand construction schedules, we communicate clearly with site managers, and we know what other trades need from us and when.

If you’re the homeowner managing your own renovation without a principal builder, we’re equally comfortable dealing directly with you. We’ll coordinate with your certifier or private building inspector as required and make sure all roofing work meets the relevant Australian Standards and NCC requirements before inspection.
