How to Find a Quality Roofing Company
17 March 2025 · 2 min read

Choosing the right roofing company is crucial for ensuring high-quality workmanship, durability, and long-term value. With so many options available, knowing what to look for will help you make the best decision for your home or business.
Look for experience and reputation
When selecting a roofing company, consider their experience and reputation in the industry:
- Companies with at least 5–10 years of experience
- Positive online reviews and testimonials
- Recommendations from friends, family, or neighbours
- Portfolio of past roofing projects
Verify licences and insurance
A reputable roofing company should have the proper licensing and insurance to protect you and their workers.
Tip: Ask for proof of public liability insurance and WorkSafe NZ compliance. We employ Licensed Building Practitioners and carry public liability insurance.
Check their portfolio
A quality roofing company should have a portfolio showcasing previous projects to demonstrate their expertise and attention to detail.
Read customer reviews
Look for recent, specific reviews — not just a star rating. Mentions of tidiness, communication, and whether the roof still performs after the first winter are worth more than generic praise.
Ask about warranties
Reliable roofers offer warranties on both materials and workmanship, ensuring long-term protection for your investment. We provide a 5-year workmanship warranty plus manufacturer cover on COLORSTEEL® and ColorCote products of up to 50 years.
Get multiple quotes
Compare at least three quotes from different roofing companies, ensuring they provide a breakdown of materials, labour, and warranty details.
Check materials and techniques
Ensure they use high-quality roofing materials suited for your location and follow best installation practices.
Evaluate communication
Choose a roofing company that provides clear, prompt communication and transparent contracts.
