How to Choose Your Tradie

Finding the right roofer for your job used to be a difficult process – flipping through the Yellow Pages and contacting multiple roofing companies. Thanks to the power of being able to post a roofing job online and then different tradespeople bidding for the opportunity to complete it, all the work is now done by the tradesmen instead of you!

Auckland roofing contractors are qualified to provide an extensive range of services. Take care, as you’ll need to vet each candidate to make sure they’re they right fit for your job. Make sure they tick all these boxes:

• Comprehensive insurance
• Reliable reviews or references
• Checkable qualifications – you can ask to see their certificates of qualification
• Warranties on work – at least 2-3 years, up to 5 years warranty (some even offer up to 10 years) – and get them to explain your warranty fully
• Preferably a member of RANZ (Roofing Association of New Zealand)

Time and Cost for the Job

Each roofing job will cost a different amount based on the time and materials required.

Some estimates for common roofing jobs:

• Roofing asbestos removal (100m²) $2000-$28600
• New tile roof (100m²) $4100-$20500
• Roof repair (less than 1m²) $70-$380

The roofer you hire will give you an estimate of the time it will take to complete your job. Some roofs are more complex or sloped than others requiring more time. Always ensure the roofing professional comes out to inspect the roof before agreeing to a cost and time estimate.
