Am I Eligible for the Roofing Resilience Grant?

Protect your home from extreme weather with government-backed funding.

Who This Is For

If you’re a homeowner in Northern Queensland dealing with an older or vulnerable roof, you may qualify for government-backed resilience funding to upgrade your roof. This grant is designed to help protect homes from extreme weather conditions—especially cyclones—by upgrading to stronger, more compliant roofing systems like modern metal roofing. We help homeowners understand their eligibility and handle the process from inspection through to installation.

What Is the Roofing Resilience Grant?

The resilience funding program supports homeowners in cyclone-prone areas to improve the structural strength of their homes.

For roofing, this typically includes:

  • Replacing older or damaged roofs
  • Upgrading from tile roofs to metal (Colorbond)
  • Improving fixings and structural integrity
  • Bringing roofs up to current cyclone rating standards

The goal is simple: reduce damage, improve safety, and lower long-term repair costs.

Core Eligibility Requirements

While criteria can vary slightly depending on funding rounds, most applicants must meet the following:
  • You own and live in the property
  • The home is located in an eligible Northern Queensland region
  • The property is at risk from cyclones or severe weather
  • The roof is older, damaged, or not up to current standards
  • The home is a primary residence (not typically investment-only properties)
If your roof has visible wear, leaks, or is made from outdated materials, there’s a strong chance you may qualify.

Property & Roof Conditions That May Qualify

You may be eligible if your home has:
  • An ageing tile roof prone to failure in high winds
  • Rusted or deteriorating metal roofing
  • Poor or outdated fixings and connections
  • Previous storm or cyclone damage
  • Roofing that does not meet modern building codes

Tile-to-metal conversions are one of the most commonly approved upgrades.

Do You Qualify?

Many homeowners assume they won’t qualify—but in reality, a large number of homes in Northern Queensland meet the criteria due to age and exposure to extreme weather.
  • Built before modern cyclone standards
  • Experienced minor storm damage
  • Live in a high-risk cyclone zone
  • Never been upgraded or reinforced
  • Insurer flagged concerns

Even if your roof “looks fine,” it may still fall short structurally.

The only way to know for sure is to have it assessed. We can quickly review your situation and guide you through the next steps.

What If You’re Unsure?

Most homeowners aren’t 100% sure if they qualify—and that’s completely normal. That’s where we come in.

We can help you: 

  • Assess your roof condition
  • Identify if your home meets eligibility criteria
  • Recommend the best upgrade options

There’s no obligation—just clear advice so you know where you stand.
