Browse 12 roof looks for existing houses and extensions, by material and home type, then see what changing each one involves.
For most Malaysian houses, roof design is about the material and finish on the roof you already have: terracotta clay, charcoal concrete or lightweight metal tile on the main roof, metal longspan, IBR sheet or sandwich panel on extensions, and details such as deep eaves, a skylight or solar panels. Re-roofing in the same shape is usually treated as maintenance, but changing the roof line or pitch needs council approval, so these 12 concept designs show re-roof looks on common roof forms and extension roofs. Use the filters below to narrow them by style or home type.
Each design below is an illustrative concept render, grouped by style and by the home it usually suits. Tap any image to enlarge it. Every card links to the ClickBina guide that covers the material, structure or detail behind that roof.

Start from the roof you have. Most landed houses in Malaysia already have a hipped or gabled tile roof that was approved with the building, and most roof projects keep that shape and change the material, colour or details. Extensions are where new roof forms usually appear: a low single slope over a kitchen, a flat slab, or an insulated panel roof.
In a row of terrace houses the roof is shared visually with the neighbours, so a dramatic change of colour or material stands out; check any rules in your scheme before deciding.
| Material | Look | Heat and rain noise | Weight | Suits |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Clay tile | Warm terracotta, ages well | Cool, quiet | Heavy | Main roofs of older homes |
| Concrete tile | Many colours, coated | Cool, quiet | Heavy | Main roofs of estate homes |
| Metal tile | Tile profile in steel | Needs insulation | Light | Weak trusses, newer designs |
| Metal longspan | Smooth wide ribs | Moderate with insulation | Light | Extensions, low pitch |
| IBR sheet | Corrugated ribs | Noisiest | Light | Back kitchens, utility |
| Standing seam | Clean vertical seams | Needs insulation | Light | Contemporary houses |
| Flat RC slab | Boxy, hidden behind a parapet | Hot without insulation | Very heavy | Modern box houses |
| Home | Usually works | Watch for |
|---|---|---|
| Intermediate terrace | Re-roof in matching tile; metal for the rear extension | Neighbour's roof joins and party walls |
| Corner terrace | Tile main roof, longspan or panel over a side extension | The extra exposed side and gutters |
| Semi-D | Concrete or metal tile, deep eaves, solar on the sunny slope | Matching the other half of the pair |
| Bungalow | Clay tile, standing seam or a flat roof behind a parapet | Large areas of falls and drainage |
ClickBina's roof tile guide puts a clay or concrete tile re-roof at RM13,500 – RM25,500 all-in for a 1,500 sq ft roof (indicative Klang Valley ranges for 2026). The metal vs tile roof guide gives metal longspan at RM6 – RM12 per sq ft for material and RM3 – RM6 per sq ft labour, or RM13,500 – RM27,000 all-in for the same size of roof, and IBR corrugated sheet at RM4 – RM8 plus RM3 – RM5 per sq ft, or RM10,500 – RM19,500 all-in.
Metal tile systems, standing seam, flat roofs, skylights and solar work are quoted per job, because the system, the details and the structure below vary from house to house.
