Roof Insulation Sunshine Coast

Best Metal Roof Insulation for the Sunshine Coast Climate

Living on the Sunshine Coast means enjoying beautiful sunny days, but it also comes with the challenge of keeping your home cool during those hot, humid summers. Installing quality insulation under your metal roof can make a huge difference in your home’s comfort, keeping the heat out and reducing your energy bills, as well as regulating temperature and minimising noise from rain. And, at AMJ Metal Roofing, we provide the best insulation options for metal roofs on the Sunshine Coast.

Metal Roofing Insulation Materials

Choosing the right insulation for your metal roof is the best way to create a more energy-efficient and comfortable home. Here is some more information on two of the best insulation materials commonly used for metal roofing in the Sunshine Coast area:

Polyester Batts Insulation

Polyester batts are a popular choice for metal roofs due to their affordability and durability. They’re also made from recycled materials, which makes them environmentally friendly, as well as resistant to moisture and pests. Polyester batts provide excellent thermal insulation, too, helping to keep your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter, while also reducing outside noise.

Anticon™ Roof Insulation

Anticon™ insulation is specifically designed for metal roofs, combining glasswool insulation with a foil backing to protect your home from heat and condensation. It’s ideal for the Sunshine Coast’s climate, as it reflects radiant heat, prevents moisture build-up, and offers excellent acoustic insulation. This is especially useful for homes in bushfire-prone areas as it’s non-combustible.

Why Insulate Your Roof?

Insulating your roof is one of the best investments you can make for your home, and whether you’re building a new house or upgrading your existing roof, insulation offers multiple benefits, including:

Energy Efficiency

Proper insulation helps regulate indoor temperatures, meaning your air conditioning and heating systems won’t have to work as hard, which can lead to lower energy bills and a reduced carbon footprint. A win-win for anyone wanting to keep costs low and minimise their impact on the planet.

Moisture Control

In the Sunshine Coast’s humid climate, condensation can easily form under your metal roof. Insulation helps to reduce this moisture build-up, preventing mould, mildew, and potential water damage in the process.

Noise Reduction

Heavy rain on a metal roof can be noisy, but good insulation can significantly reduce the sound, making your home more peaceful during storms. Likewise, it can help to reduce external road noise and any sound coming from the

Fire Resistance

Certain insulation materials, like Anticon™, can offer an added layer of protection in bushfire-prone areas, giving you peace of mind knowing your home is safer.

AMJ completed a roof replacement at our home. This involved removal of our old asbestos roof and replacing with a new colorbond roof, guttering and insulation. They also installed a new roof over our deck using insulated paneling.We were really happy with the end product and the care the AMJ team took in all their work. The team at AMJ kept us informed throughout the planning, the job was completed really quickly and I would recommend them to anyone.

I was getting a Building and Pest inspection done on a house in Annerley I was looking at buying. Because of that storm cell that hit Annerley in 2014 I also had Dennis at A.M.J come out for a second opinion on the "tin" roof. The Building and Pest guys gave the roof the all clear, "No damage, the roof is good". Dennis actually got out the ladder, climbed up the side of the high-set Queenslander and properly inspected the roof. Two minutes, and a half dozen photo's later, he climb's back down to tell me the roof has been severely damaged by hail, and will have to be replaced. Without a proper quote, anywhere up to $30 000. Well, thank you Dennis! That would have been a very expensive mistake you helped me avoid if I had just taken the word of a very reputable, local Building and Pest company. I have contacted that company asking for a full refund! Again, thank you Dennis and A.M.J, very happy to recommend anyone to your company!! Cheers Mark @ Annerley

AMJ Metal Roofing replaced our terracotta tile roof with a new colorbond roof. Their detailed quote gave peace of mind during the entire process. AMJ covered every detail involved in carrying out this project. 5 star service throughout the entire AMJ team. We love our new roof, thank you!

These guys were very efficient with your paperwork & contract...great to deal with! We had had a number of people look at our (quite flat) roof over the years and your guys spent quite a while on the roof & said they knew what the problem was... The roof got tested with two big downpours - staff ready with buckets & sqeegees - we had no further leaks.3 works to describe AMJ? Efficient, competent, organized.You guys really know what youre doing...very well done!

AMJ was a great company to deal with. In 2011 I had the roof and guttering of my Sunnybank Hills property replaced by AMJ Metal Roofing. The new colour bond roof looked great and the job was completed with no disruption to our family and no rubbish left on site. The cost was very competitive. The roof withstood two severe hailstorms during the subsequent years with no damage or leaks.In 2017 I listed this property for sale and was required to supply a detailed independent building report which included an internal inspection of the roof. It was noted during this inspection that a small number of screws were not fixed properly into one of the batons. I rang AMJ Roofing and within 48 hours a company representative had come to the property, replaced the screws and provided certification for the work. I was very pleased with the service 6 years after the original job.

Could not recommend AMJ Metal roofing more. Their company and staff were amazing to deal with. From the first initial contact to get a quote through to the completion of the roof has been so easy. From Jenna in the office who was easy to get in contact with and replied to emails and call very fast to Nigel who quoted, Matt who checked on the work process and all the tradies just made the entire process of replacing our old roof with a new metal roof so easy. We couldn't be happier with the work that was done. All the tradies were wonderful and polite, they would let us know what was happening each day with the work and the time frame was great from start to finish the work took 4 days.I would recommend AMJ Metal roofing to everyone who needs a new roof or just maintenance. Very, very happy

Thanks for our new roof!From the moment we first contacted AMJ, and right up until the roof was completed, we knew we had made the right decision to employ their services.Nigel provided us with an extremely thorough quote and offered us some helpful advice along the way. Nigel's quote actually involved him climbing onto the roof for a detailed inspection - unlike some quotes we received from others in the industry..Dennis then took the reigns and looked after us extremely well throughout the whole asbestos removal and subsequent roof installation process, and ensured that the finished product was exactly as had been quoted and was completed to a very high standard.Shanelle at their head office was always extremely thorough when assisting us with any queries we had and was always a pleasure to speak with. We are extremely happy with our new Zincalume roof. Not only does our home look fantastic, the internal house temperature during summer was significantly reduced once the new roof and insulation had been installed.Thank you to the team at AMJ for a job well done.Matt & JasMJ Renovations

We have had a very positive experience with AMJ. From the initial consultation with their sales person (Nigel), meeting one of the directors (Alan) to explain in detail their roofing solutions, dealing with their staff (James, Craig and others) through to their helpful administration staff (Shanelle) we have had exceptional service. Their pricing was very competitive and they delivered everything they said they would, on time and kept us well informed. I highly recommend them!Dirk Witteveen - Sheldon

We had to replace our deteriorated Cement Tiled roof and AMJ won the job after researching and comparing quotes from other companies. We are thrilled with the results of our new Colourbond metal roof. Nigel quoted and answered all questions we had, Shanelle was just as helpful from the Office, Dennis and the Team were punctual, friendly, very professional and left our yard tidy. The roof was on in 2 days with zero interruption to familly life. Dennis even saved us future heartache and expense when removing the existing solar hot water tank. It was too dodgy to put back up and he co-ordinated with the Plumber for installation of a new system. I was kept up to date with photos and text messages and phone calls before, during and after the job. We rate AMJ Roofing 10 out of 10 and would highly recommend the Team to anyone requiring a roofing specialist.

Thomas Burne

Excellent from start to finish. Nigel organised the quote and was very professional and the quote was competitive. Dennis coordinated the work from delivery, managing the site and clean up. Good communication, no fuss and very responsive to questions. Very happy with our full roof replacement on a 1926 Queenslander.

Cameron was totally professional and competent. He advised us well. The speed with which the job was finished - a complete roof renewal - was just amazing. The work was done thoroughly, all rubbish was taken away speedily and the Manor red colorbond roof looks just like the advert; I stand and stare in amazement at the beauty of this new roof. I throughly recommend AMJ Metal Roofing.

Simon Cook

10:06 19 Jun 19

Thank you so much to the AMJ Team for our new roof!It was a great experience from meeting Nigel for the quote, talking with the team in the office and having our foreman Denis overseeing the job at every stage was seemless and professional. The team went to every length to ensure we were 100% happy with the job.We would throughly recommend AMJ to anyone wanting to transform their home or business.Thanks again, Simon and Emma.

We only had our gutters replaced so our job was not as big as some that AMJ do but we were still treated the same as if we were having our whole roof replaced. they did a great job and Shanelle in the office is an absolute treasusre to deal with. Would highly recommend.

We are very happy with the roof replacement performed by AMJ on our colonial style home. The tradesmen were a very talented, efficient and friendly group who worked together like a well oiled machine. Their supervisor Graham did a great job keeping us informed and updated and the job ran smoothly. We would not hesitate to recommend them to any one looking for metal roofers.

AMJ Metal Roofing replaced my leaking corrugated roof. Done in a few days with crane and scaffolding. All stages closely scheduled and done in a highly efficient manner. May not be the cheapest but AMJ Metal Roofing is an outstanding company to deal with (and I am not gaining anything by submitting this review). My wife was similarly impressed with the thorough cleanup when the job was finished.

Lynda Dunstan

03:57 09 Jan 24

Great company to deal with so nice to talk with happy people who actually enjoy their work. They were very easy to talk to about our job and we are very happy with their work thank you for your help A.M.J. Metal Roofing.

Nobody *wants* a leaking roof. But if you do end up facing that stressful situation, get a quote from AMJ. They weren’t the cheapest but they were the most professional and only ones out of three that really thought through the problem and came up with a clever and workable solution for the shoddy roof design and build at our place.All their staff have been great to work with - always on time, polite, contactable. They made a stressful situation much better for us.I’m hoping not to have any problems with this roof for many years but if I need help with another roof, I’ll be calling AMJ!

If you contract with AMJ Roofing you can be sure of a top quality finish using quality products. They recently replaced my 31yr old leaking tile roof with Colourbond and I could not be happier. The tradies were a lovely happy bunch of guys. I have a whole new house! When it rains I don’t have to go looking for the leaks.Alex was my supervisor and he was wonderful. Kept me informed all the way. In fact, I think the guttering guy let him down, so Alex put on his tool belt and got the job done.You can’t go wrong with AMJ Roofing. Info: I am on the Gold Coast.

Our experience with AMJ can be summed up in one word: exceptional!The team demonstrated absolute professionalism while tackling a very complicated re-roofing project on a busy medical building. Despite the challenges of limited access and working above a live, fully operational medical center on a bustling road, AMJ managed the entire project seamlessly.We received constant updates throughout, and the customer service provided by Shanelle was second to none. The finished product is flawless, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend AMJ for any roofing project.We look forward to working with them again!

Terrible experience after dealing with this inept company for six long months. I contacted AMJ Metal Roofing last February to get a quote from their estimator, the very young handsome. Joshua Bain. He is a very presentable young man, who was very professional flying a drone around my property. I accepted his quotation, and that was the start of my problems leading to many unwanted sleepless nights. I was ready to pay the balance of their invoice and in fact, had a bank cheque for the balance in my hand and gave the cheque to the estimator. When there was a fault I withdrew their cheque. In summary I had the Building Inspector at my property on three occasions. The job AMJ did for me was to replace all my guttering and downpipes, and replace my patio. It would be remise of me if I didn't mention Emily. the administration assistant for all her help, as she was very pleasant to deal with both over the phone and in our email conversations. Their, GM, Sarah didn't come into the picture until much later. Sarah made light of the water gushing down from my downpipes. saying it was a "minor" defect. The many problems I encountered with AMJ affected my health, causing me loss of sleep, and my brother, whom I confided in headaches. Initially. when decided on the company I should employ I chose AMJ over Justin from Leakfree Plumbing. What a huge mistake I made. Finally, after the third Building Inspector's report and after six months, he said I could go ahead and pay AMJ, I waited until the recent heavy downpour before I paid AMJ in full last week. I requested a receipt from GM, Sarah and am still waiting. Dealing with AMJ Metal Roofing has been a nightmare for me and regardless of their favourable reviews I recommend you should do yourself a favour and avoid AMJ Metal Roofing like the plague.

A.M.J roofing replaced our old super 6 roofing with a colorbond roof in 2019. They did a fantastic job then, but when the cyclone hit this year (Feb 2025) we had a small leak into the bathroom ceiling.I contacted A.M.J about the problem and they were more than happy to come back do an inspection and organise a repair at no cost to us.In the end it turned out not to be the new roof installation that was the problem but an older section of roofing.I can't thank Cameron and everyone at A.M.J enough for the service, repair and follow up.

AMJ were great from start to completion of our new roof. Office staff kept us informed throughout the process and the workmen were wonderful. Our roof looks great and the site was left clean and tidy. I would definitely recommend AMJ roofing.

AMJ Metal Roofing just completed our roof and gutter replacement. We are extremely pleased with the results and throughly recommend the company. From the initial quotation right through to the site clean up, the AMJ team were extremely professional, keeping us fully informed every step and delivering on timelines.

A.M.J made getting a new roof simple and enjoyable. Right from the beginning quote to the clean up! Always on time and keeping you fully informed of the process throughout. Very reasonable quote…. no need to look further. We are very happy to give this company 5 stars and would recommend to anybody.

Nathan Yates

For what is a big investment into your biggest asset. I can highly recommend AMJ. The whole team were wonderful to deal with from start to finish. I had them come back to fix something up for me and they were prompt and efficient. Every one I dealt with was great and would encourage anyone who is thinking about taking a leap of faith to give AMJ a go. So happy with the result but most importantly the peace of mind before, during and after knowing I was getting the job done right.

It has now been two months since our tiled roof was replaced with Colorbond, and we could not be happier with both the process and the result. The new roof looks stunning and has truly enhanced our home. From the initial quotation to the final completion, AMJ demonstrated exceptional professionalism, organization, and project management. Every member of the team was courteous, efficient, and highly skilled. We were especially impressed when, during a thunderstorm at 3am, someone from AMJ came to inspect our roof—an extraordinary level of care that exceeded our expectations. We are genuinely grateful for the outstanding service and are very pleased we chose AMJ for our roofing project.

John Cutler

05:01 16 Jan 26

I did a lot of research to find a company to replace my tile roof with colorbond. AMJ were professional from office contacts to roofing staff, and job was completely in a timely manner with no issues. Price was acceptable, completed roof work of a good standard.

Simone Leslie

09:29 31 Jan 26

We were very disappointed with our experience with AMJ Metal Roofing. The work was subcontracted without our knowledge, and the subcontractors needed to borrow our equipment and produced questionable workmanship. We only discovered inadequately reinforced battens because we checked the roof ourselves, and the roofers also cracked our external weatherboards with a nail gun.There were multiple ordering issues that caused repeated delays, including incorrect Colorbond sheeting and insufficient screws and gutter guard. The rear bay window was also left out of the original quote despite this being a full roof replacement, creating further delays.Although AMJ later acknowledged some issues and offered limited rectifications (such as gluing the weatherboard cracks, covering the cost of the bay window forgotten in the quote and reinforcing the batten), the overall coordination, communication, and quality control were well below expectations. When we raised these concerns, it took a week to receive a response (which I had to chase), and the main follow-up was simply a request for payment of the overdue invoice.Based on our experience, we would not recommend AMJ Metal Roofing.

we honestly could not fault the service we received from the entire team at AMJ METAL ROOFING! From Jordan doing the initial quote, Tegan organising the workers/contractors and other admin, Ryan and the blokes who were here in the ridiculous heat changing the roof!Everyone was really professional and easy to deal with, there was excellent communication around what to expect and when as well as any changes or delays which was only due to wet weather!The materials used (corrugated colour-bond in Basalt) and workmanship were excellent quality!Our roof was really old and odd, Ryan said he had never seen one like it in the 15 years he has been roofing. Nevertheless they brought the old structure up to the current standards, we had them install the 60mm anticon insulation also, not only is our house cooler and quieter but looks so much nicer and modern!We also had a quote from another roofing company, AMJ offered a much more competitive pricing but I can tell you first hand their quality and workmanship is excellent and they Back this up with a 10yr Workmanship warranty along with colour-bonds 30yr Warranty on materials!Another very satisfied Customer!Thank you AMJ!
