We take pride in our workmanship, getting it done properly the first time. Using only quality, proven materials and methods, we ensure our roofing solutions are built to last. We work with both tile and metal roofing systems across new builds, repairs, and re-roofing projects.
We cover both tile and metal roofs. With reliability, care and attention to detail at the core of everything we do, we offer a full suite of roofing services designed to give homeowners, builders, and businesses confidence that their roof is in expert hands.
Roofs can develop issues over time due to weather, ageing materials, or poor workmanship. We identify the cause and carry out practical, long-lasting repairs.
Common Issues:
Leaks caused by failed silicone, rusted flashings or poorly installed sheeting
Overflowing gutters due to poor drainage or blocked downpipes
Water pooling on low-pitch roofs
Previous repairs that were rushed or incomplete
What We Do:
Inspect the full roofing system to identify the root cause
Replace failed silicone with high-grade products (e.g. Sika)
Re-seat or replace flashings to correct water direction
Re-sheet areas with .48BMT steel for better durability
Check pitch and drainage, and recommend improvements if needed
We work with builders and owner-builders to supply and install complete roofing systems for new homes and developments. Everything is installed to last and finished to a high standard.
Typical Needs:
Roofing for new homes, duplexes, or multi-unit builds
Integration with builder timelines and other trades
Consistency in quality across multiple properties
What We Do:
Install full roofing systems, including battens, sarking, and cladding
Use durable materials like .48BMT steel and trusted brands
Fit custom flashings for problem-prone areas (chimneys, skylights, valleys)
Ensure correct pitch, spacing, and finish for longevity
Work neatly and to schedule, with good site communication
When your existing roof has reached the end of its life, re-roofing is often the most efficient and cost-effective solution. We remove the old roof and install a modern, reliable replacement.
Common Reasons to Re-Roof:
Old roof materials are rusted, cracked, or have failed fixings
Ongoing leaks despite repeated patch repairs
Poor energy efficiency or outdated roof structure
What We Do:
Carefully remove and dispose of the existing roof
Inspect supporting structure (rafters, battens) for damage
Upgrade to new, reliable replacement - lightweight metal or tile options
Improve drainage layout if original design was poor
Install new flashings and underlays for full system protection
We offer practical roofing solutions for shops, warehouses, office buildings, and other commercial sites. Our focus is on performance, safety, and minimal disruption to operations.
Key Concerns for Commercial Clients:
Water leaks disrupting business or damaging stock
Aged roofs with visible rust or movement
Need for clear, predictable timelines
What We Do:
Provide roof repairs, upgrades or full installations for commercial sites
Work safely and in stages to minimise disruption
Ensure compliance with relevant codes and drainage needs
Use appropriate materials for large-span or low-pitch designs
Communicate clearly with project managers or site supervisors
Gutters and downpipes are essential for effective roof drainage. We install and replace these systems to ensure water is directed safely away from your property.
Typical Issues:
Overflowing gutters in heavy rain
Downpipes not sized or pitched correctly
Rusting or sagging due to poor installation
Mould or rot behind fascia from water entry
What We Do:
Replace gutters and downpipes with correct falls and sizing
Install fascia and barge boards where required
Use strong brackets and secure fixings to avoid sagging
Test drainage flow and make adjustments to improve performance
Flashings are critical to keeping water out at junctions and edges. We custom make and install flashings that match your roof’s design and provide proper protection.
Typical Issues:
Leaks around chimneys, skylights, or wall junctions
Poorly designed flashings that don’t direct water properly
Sealants failing over time due to UV exposure
What We Do:
Measure and fabricate custom flashings to suit your roof
Install lead flashings for heritage or complex roof shapes
Use smart flashing layout to reduce water pressure on joins
Secure and seal all flashings using industry-standard methods
We install skylights to bring natural light into your home without compromising the structure or integrity of your roof. Proper sealing and flashing are essential.
Common Risks:
Skylights leaking due to poor flashing or sealing
Condensation issues when not installed correctly
Structural gaps or thermal loss if cut-in is rough
What We Do:
Advise on skylight type and placement
Install with proper support, flashing, and sealing
Use products suited to your roof material (metal or tile)
Ensure a watertight and visually clean finish
Roof inspections help identify problems early and are useful for pre-purchase checks or general maintenance planning. We provide honest, straightforward reporting.
When It’s Needed:
Buying or selling a property
Suspected roof damage after storms or over time
Builders or property managers requiring documentation
What We Do:
Inspect full roof area, including flashings, gutters, and fixings
Identify visible and potential issues, with photo documentation
Provide a written report with findings and recommended actions
Explain whether repairs, maintenance, or replacement is best
Locally owned and based in Port Macquarie, Harry South Roofing Co. provides reliable tile and metal roofing solutions across the Mid North Coast, built with care, honesty, and workmanship that lasts for generations.
Hi, I’m Harry. Shortly after completing my apprenticeship in Roof Tiling and gaining my RPL in Roof Plumbing, I started Harry South Roofing Co, a young, locally owned business based in Port Macquarie and servicing the Mid North Coast.
Licensed in both tile and metal roofing, our team delivers practical, long-lasting roofing solutions for homeowners, builders, and businesses. We’re driven by a commitment to quality over shortcuts — using proven materials, taking the time to do things properly, and ensuring every job is completed with care and attention to detail.
With the energy of a young team and strong on-site leadership, we’ve successfully completed high-difficulty projects, including multiple complex roofs on the remote Lord Howe Island. That experience, along with the invaluable knowledge I gained during my apprenticeship at Neil Hassett Roofing & Co. in Sydney, has shaped how we operate today.
At Harry South Roofing Co., we’ve built our reputation on doing what we say we’ll do: showing up on time, working hard, and leaving every job site clean. No upselling, no pressure — just honest advice, reliable service, and workmanship designed to last for generations.

Yes. We regularly work with builders on both one-off custom homes and volume builds. We’re experienced with scheduling alongside other trades and meeting construction timelines.
Located in Port Macquarie, we provide services across the Mid North Coast and surrounding regions, with travel available up to 100km. Get in touch with us today to discuss your project.
We stock a range of roof tiles and can often find a close match. You can also send us a photo of the tile you’re trying to match through our site, and we’ll let you know what’s available.
That’s completely fine. About half our clients come to us unsure of the problem—they just know something’s not right. We’ll assess the roof, explain what’s going on, and offer a clear recommendation.
