Ultra Roof Restorations
Gold Coast, QLD
AustralianRoofers Trust Score New
How it's calculated: a transparent, evidence-weighted score — identity & longevity from the public ABN register, reputation from verified Google reviews, and consistency from cross-checking independent platforms. Grades are proportional to the evidence. Where we search the register and can't confirm a business, the identity check scores zero rather than being quietly left out — so a firm we couldn't verify never outranks one we could. Longevity stays unscored in that case, because without a registration date there's nothing to measure.
Our honest take
Ultra Roof Restorations is one of those rare listings where the paperwork and the reviews tell exactly the same story. The Australian Business Register shows a sole trader — Jed Searles, ABN active since Feb 2017 — and when we read through the firm's 93 Google reviews, 'Jed' is the name that comes up over and over: quoting the job, doing the work, cleaning up afterwards. There's no gap between who the business says it is and who customers say turned up.
The numbers themselves are unusually strong: a flat 5.0 average from 93 reviews with not a single complaint we could find. Of the Gold Coast roofers we've reviewed, that's about as clean as a record gets. The recurring themes are attention to detail (it's practically a catchphrase across the reviews), friendliness, and fair pricing — several reviewers say he was cheaper than they expected for the quality delivered.
Our honest caveats: this is a one-man operation with no website, so there's no portfolio to browse and no second review platform to cross-check Google against — ProductReview has no listing. And the work skews heavily to tile restoration: cleaning, repairs, repointing and painting. Only one review mentions a full re-roof, so if your roof is past saving, he may not be the obvious first call. For restoration work, though, the evidence is emphatic.

Who you'll actually deal with
Jed Searles — owner-operator
This is Jed's business in every sense. The ABN is registered to Jed Searles personally as a sole trader, and he's the one customers deal with from quote to cleanup — 'Jed' is named across the overwhelming majority of the firm's Google reviews, far more than any other word that isn't 'roof'. Reviewers describe a tradesman who genuinely enjoys the work: 'you can tell he loves what he does', 'an absolute perfectionist and yet so down to earth'.
The upside of an owner-operator is that the person who quoted your job is the person on your roof, and his name is on every result. The trade-off is capacity: one set of hands means scheduling depends on his workload and the weather, and bigger jobs will take as long as one careful tradesman takes. Reviews suggest he communicates well when weather pushes things around, which is what you want from a solo operator.
What clients say
In their own words
Jed is a quality tradesman with a very high attention to detail. He is friendly and easy to deal with. He produced a high quality job on a difficult roof restoration. I highly recommend him if you are after a quality roof restoration at a reasonable price.
I would highly recommend this company. Jed did an amazing job with our full roof restoration. The roof tile replacement, re-setting and pointing was A grade. Couldn’t recommend more highly.
Jed was an absolute pleasure to deal with, super happy and willing to assist in giving quality work according to our needs. He was swift and efficient to provide the results of our roof restoration. Highly recommended!! Thanks Jed.
Reviewers consistently praise Jed's attention to detail, his friendly and honest manner, and restoration results that made old tile roofs 'look brand new' — several also note the price was very reasonable for the quality.
Best for
- Tile roof restorations on the Gold Coast — clean, repair, repoint and repaint is clearly his bread and butter
- Homeowners who want the owner on the tools, not a sales rep quoting and a subcontracted crew turning up
- Smaller repair jobs like broken tiles, leaks or ridge capping — reviews mention him fitting urgent small jobs in quickly
Less suited for
- Full re-roofs or metal roof replacements — only one of 93 reviews mentions replacement work, so it's not the core offer
- Large or time-critical projects that need a full crew on site — this is a one-man operation
- Anyone who wants to browse a website or photo portfolio before calling — there isn't one; the Google reviews are the shopfront
Before you commit
Five questions worth asking
- Is it just you on the tools, and realistically how far out are you booked?
- What exactly does the restoration include — clean, tile repairs, repointing, and how many coats of paint or membrane?
- What warranty do you put in writing on both the workmanship and the coating?
- Can you confirm your QBCC licence number and insurance details before we book? (We verified the ABN, but licensing is worth sighting yourself for any roofing job over the QBCC threshold.)
- If my roof turns out to be too far gone for a restoration, will you tell me straight that it needs re-roofing instead — and is that a job you'd take on or refer out?
Bottom line
A verified sole trader with nine years on the ABN, a perfect 5.0 across 93 reviews, and a name — Jed — that shows up in both the Business Register and nearly every review. For Gold Coast tile roof restoration he's one of the strongest picks we've reviewed; just don't expect a website, a big crew, or a re-roofing quote.
