Gladesville sits on the northern banks of the Parramatta River, around 10 kilometres from the Sydney CBD, with postcode 2111 and an unusual split: part of the suburb falls in the City of Ryde and part in the Municipality of Hunters Hill, Australia’s oldest garden suburb, where about three quarters of the area is a conservation area. That mix means Gladesville roofs range from heritage homes and sandstone cottages to Federation houses and apartment buildings, many with ageing tiles, chimney flashings and gutters that need careful, like-for-like repairs. The suburb’s main commercial strip runs along Victoria Road, the old Great North Road, where cafés, restaurants, lawyers and health services have replaced the butchers and hardware stores of earlier generations, and the Gladesville Shopping Village sits off Cowell Street, all with flat and metal roofs that need regular upkeep. The Gladesville Bridge, opened in its current concrete arch form in 1964, is a reminder of how close the river and harbour winds are. Ivy Roofing has serviced homes and businesses across Gladesville for over 20 years, and our HIA membership (#1311978) means every repair, re-roof and gutter job is carried out by qualified tradespeople to proper compliance standards.
We fix cracked or slipped tiles, rusted metal sheeting and storm damage on Gladesville homes, including chimney flashing and ridge capping, before leaks reach ceilings and walls.
When a Gladesville roof is past economical repair, our team manages full tile or metal re-roofing, with material and colour choices that suit your street and any conservation requirements.
Trees and parkland around Gladesville fill gutters with leaves and bark. We repair sagging gutters, replace corroded sections and downpipes, and fit leaf guards on homes and commercial buildings.
We install and reseal skylights for Gladesville homes and units, correcting common flashing failures that cause leaks around roof penetrations after heavy rain.
Using moisture tracing and thorough roof inspections, we pinpoint the source of hidden leaks in Gladesville properties, so the repair actually solves the problem the first time.
From cafés, clinics and offices along Victoria Road to the shops near Gladesville Shopping Village, we repair and replace flat and metal roofing, box gutters and flashing, scheduling work to minimise disruption to trading hours.

Our older Gladesville home needed ridge capping and chimney flashing repaired. Ivy matched the existing tiles well, explained what the council needed and left the property spotless.
We run a small practice on Victoria Road and had a roof leak above the waiting room. Ivy arranged the repair outside our opening hours and explained the cause clearly.
Gutters were overflowing every storm because of the trees on our street. Ivy replaced the worst sections and fitted leaf guards. Professional team and a clear quote.

Gladesville is split between the City of Ryde and the Municipality of Hunters Hill, and the rules can differ. About three quarters of Hunters Hill is a conservation area, so changes to roof materials or appearance there are more likely to need approval, while like-for-like repairs are often simpler. We confirm which council applies and what it requires before work starts.
