What is Long Run Steel Roofing?
Long run steel roofing is a metal roofing system made from continuous steel sheets, custom-rolled to run the full length of your roof from ridge to gutter. With fewer joins than traditional roofing, it offers superior leak resistance, a 50+ year lifespan, and low-maintenance performance suited to Auckland's climate.
At Tasman Roofing, we specialise exclusively in long run metal roofing for residential and commercial properties across Auckland. With more than 45 years of hands-on experience, our licensed team delivers dependable new installations, re-roofing, and material supply, backed by quality workmanship and results built to last.

Great work done by Kyle, Glyn and his team. He accommodated the change in date and had to work through rain and cold weather to get our roof up. Keep up the good work. Well done.

FAQs
Long run roofing is a type of metal roofing made from steel sheets custom-rolled to run the full length of your roof, from ridge to gutter. Because each sheet runs continuously, there are fewer joins, reducing the risk of leaks. Sheets are fixed with concealed or exposed fasteners and finished with protective coatings suited to New Zealand's climate.
Cost depends on roof size, pitch, access, profile choice, and whether it's a new build or reroof. A site inspection is recommended for an accurate quote, as every roof is different.
Tasman Roofing, based in Takanini, installs long run steel roofing across all of Auckland, including North Shore, Central Auckland, West Auckland, East Auckland, South Auckland, and Franklin.
A properly installed long run steel roof typically lasts 40–50+ years, performing well against Auckland's rain, wind, and coastal salt exposure when finished with quality protective coatings such as ColorCote or Colorsteel.
Most reroofing and new roof installations require building consent in New Zealand. Tasman Roofing's projects are completed in full compliance with New Zealand building standards, and the team can advise on consent requirements during your free quote.
