Serving Hamilton, Waikato & surrounding areas
Roofing Temple View covers three different kinds of job. Village homes, some of them new builds in a fast-growing census area, sit alongside the Hamilton City Council District Plan's listed heritage buildings and the houses and farm sheds on the rural land that makes up much of the area.
We handle repairs, leak fixes, re-roofs and new roofs across Temple View, and we check heritage and special character listings before quoting work on any affected building. A Licensed Building Practitioner (Roofing) inspects for free and puts the quote in writing. Ring 07 808 3123 or fill in the form with the address and what you need.

Temple View straddles boundaries. LINZ places it across Hamilton City, Waikato District and Waipa District, and around 60% of the area is in the Waipa District Plan Rural Zone. The LDS Temple on Tuhikaramea Road is here, and the first house in the settlement was completed in 1952.
That mix shapes the roofing. Homes along McKay Drive and Cowley Drive need the usual repairs and re-roofs, while the rural properties on Koromatua Road or Wallace Road often have a house, a garage and one or more sheds on the same title. Buildings in the Temple View special character zone, or on the heritage schedule, carry their own district plan rules.
We sort out which of those applies before we quote. A free inspection covers every roof on the property you want looked at, and the written quote prices the house apart from any outbuildings, which lets you stage the work. The same crew handles our full Hamilton roofing service, with a Licensed Building Practitioner (Roofing) accountable for the work in Temple View as anywhere else.
Temple View has new housing, protected buildings and working rural land, so the services below start with new roofs and finish with inspections.
We fit new roofs to new builds and extensions around Temple View. Dwellings in the Temple View census area grew 13.6% between the 2018 and 2023 Censuses, and new long-run roofs need their details done right from day one. We pay close attention to flashings, penetrations for flues and heat pump fixings, and the junctions where an extension meets an older roof, because those are where young roofs usually leak.
We repair and re-roof buildings in Temple View that sit inside the Temple View special character zone or on the Built Heritage schedule. The Hamilton City Council District Plan lists the LDS Temple at 509 Tuhikaramea Road at ranking A, along with several Church College items at ranking B. For any affected building, we check the listing before quoting and match the roof profile and details to suit.
We roof houses and rural outbuildings in Temple View, often in the same visit. Much of the area is Rural Zone land on the Waipa side, where a property may have a house, a garage and one or more farm sheds. Re-roofing sheds in long-run steel, renewing long gutter runs and repairing the house roof can be planned together, which saves a second set-up on site.
We trace and repair roof leaks in Temple View. Damp is a real issue in the Temple View census area, with more than a quarter of occupied dwellings, 28%, damp always or sometimes at the 2023 Census. The roof is one possible cause among many, and a roof and spouting check will rule it in or out. If we find one, we fix the entry point, whether it is a flashing, a fixing, a valley or a blocked outlet.
We inspect roofs across Temple View before any work is priced. NIWA describes exposed parts of the Waikato as very windy at times, and open rural sites tend to catch more of it than sheltered streets. We check fixings, ridge caps and flashings for movement, look at cement sheet roofs on older buildings for possible asbestos, and give you photos with a written report.
Temple View homes and sheds are priced separately. Small repairs are usually NZ$350 to NZ$1,500, and a straightforward replacement around NZ$120 to NZ$250 per square metre. Heritage buildings need extra detailing, and an involved roof shape, upmarket material or rotten timber adds cost as well. Every inspection is free and every quote is written, with outbuildings on their own lines.
Where a Temple View building is on the heritage schedule or inside the Temple View special character zone, matching the original profile and details can add materials and time. We check the listing first, so that cost is known before you commit.
Rural Temple View properties often have several roofs to price. Each outbuilding is listed separately, along with any long spouting runs, so the most urgent roof can be done first and the rest planned around the farm calendar.
Temple View has houses from 1952 onward, and any built or altered before 2000 falls in the period when asbestos is quite likely. If a roof or shed looks like cement sheet, it is tested first and licensed removal is priced separately.
Temple View is changing. Dwellings in the Temple View census area rose 13.6% between the 2018 and 2023 Censuses, and the Church College site, demolished in 2018, was reportedly planned to be replaced by housing. About 11.1% of the area is in the Hamilton City Council Future Urban Zone. New roofs bring their own checklist of flashings, penetrations and fixings, which is why we offer inspections on young roofs as well as old ones.
The Temple View census area's occupied dwellings were 80.2% separate houses and 18.2% joined dwellings at the 2023 Census, averaging 3.4 bedrooms. Joined homes need repairs scoped per unit with access agreed, while larger separate houses mean bigger roof areas to price.
Heritage is the other constant. The Hamilton City Council District Plan heritage schedule lists six Built Heritage items in Temple View, and about 2.2% of the area falls in the Temple View special character zone. We check any listing before we quote.
We take roofing jobs throughout Temple View, from village streets near Koromatua School to rural properties along Foster Road.

Temple View repairs generally cost NZ$350 to NZ$1,500, and replacing a plain roof NZ$120 to NZ$250 per square metre or near it. Heritage detailing, complex roofs, premium materials or rotten timber push costs higher, and sheds are priced on separate lines. Quotes are written and follow a free inspection.
They can. The Hamilton City Council District Plan lists six Built Heritage items in Temple View, including the LDS Temple, and part of the area is in the Temple View special character zone. Most homes are not listed. Where yours is on the schedule or in the zone, we read the listing first and choose a profile and flashing details that suit the building.
Yes. Much of Temple View is rural land, and many properties have more than one roof. We inspect them all in one visit, price each roof on its own line, and can schedule the work together to save a second set-up. Long spouting runs on sheds are included in the same quote.
We do. We install long-run roofs on new homes and extensions in Temple View, with careful flashing around penetrations and junctions. We also inspect newer roofs where an owner is worried about a detail, since flashings, penetrations and fixings are where installation faults tend to appear on young roofs.
Phone 07 808 3123 for the soonest available visit. For rural Temple View properties, tell us which building is leaking and roughly where, so we bring the right materials. We stop the water first, then quote any permanent repair in writing before doing it.
Some may. Temple View homes built or altered between 1950 and 2000 quite likely contain asbestos somewhere, and cement sheet roofing is one way it appears. We test a suspect roof before work starts, and a licensed asbestos removalist takes away any asbestos-cement sheets before the new roof goes on.
Yes. We cover the village, the newer housing and the rural properties in Temple View, whichever council boundary they fall under. Let us know the address and which buildings need attention, and we will inspect each roof free and quote them all in writing.
