Trading name of MELBOURNE ROOF REPAIRS PTY LTD · Melbourne, VIC
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
Melbourne Roof Repairs is a small outfit covering the CBD and eastern suburbs, and the reviews they do have are genuinely warm: leaks fixed within a couple of hours of the first call, a gutter repaired the same day, before-and-after photos supplied, and jobs left clean. The recurring words are fast, efficient and honest, and nobody in the 19 reviews has a bad word to say. For a quick, responsive repair — the kind of job where you just want someone up a ladder today — that's an appealing record.
But we'd be doing you a disservice if we stopped there, because the record is thin and it has gone quiet. All 19 reviews are at least a year old, five of them carry no text at all, and the perfect 5.0 rests on a sample small enough that a handful of goodwill reviews moves the needle. The listed address — Suite 8, 90 Collins Street — is a CBD office tower, which reads as a mail address rather than a depot, and the website names no people at all; a single reviewer thanks a 'Mark', but that's one mention and we can't confirm his role.
The paper trail raises the same questions. The website claims over 40 years in the roofing industry and a ten-year warranty on major services, yet Melbourne Roof Repairs Pty Ltd was only registered in February 2023, isn't currently GST-registered according to the ABR, and holds two other trading names. None of that proves anything is wrong — plenty of experienced tradies incorporate late and trade under several brands — but a 2023 company making 40-year claims, with no reviews in the past year, is one to verify in person before you hand over a deposit.
Reputation across the web New
The same firm, checked across platforms
⚑ Big claims, young company, quiet record
The website advertises 'over 40 years in the roofing industry' and a ten-year warranty, but the company behind the name was registered in February 2023, is not currently GST-registered on the ABR, and lists a Collins Street office-tower suite as its address. Meanwhile the Google reviews stopped over a year ago. Any one of these alone is unremarkable; together they mean you should ask who exactly is behind the business, confirm the warranty in writing, and get a recent reference before committing to major work.

Who you'll actually deal with
The team — no named principals
We couldn't establish who runs Melbourne Roof Repairs. The website publishes no team page, no founder's name and no ABN, and the Google Business Profile gives only the Collins Street suite address. One reviewer warmly thanks a 'Mark' for quick, efficient and honest service, which is the only individual name in the whole review record — a single mention isn't enough for us to say he's the owner, so treat that as an open question for your first phone call.
What the reviews do consistently describe is a small crew that answers quickly and moves fast — leak fixes within hours, same-day gutter repairs, photos of the work supplied. The owner replies to most reviews, briefly ('Cheers', 'Thanks'), which at least shows someone is watching the profile. But compared with the eastern-suburbs roofers we've reviewed that publish real names and faces, this one is anonymous, and that's worth weighing.
What clients say
In their own words
Melbourne Roof Repairs was an excellent decision. They arrived on time, completed the task as promised, and cleaned up afterward.
Terrific guys to deal with had roof leak fixed within a couple of hours after getting in touch thanks guys for repair my roof fast service
Great guys too deal with my roof is looking great after having repointed and cleaned
Reviewers consistently describe fast turnarounds — leaks fixed within hours, same-day gutter repairs — with punctual arrivals, honest dealing and a clean site afterwards.
Best for
- Urgent small repairs and leak callouts in the CBD and eastern suburbs — speed is the single strongest theme in the reviews
- Same-day fixes on gutters, broken tiles and pointing — the record is all small-to-medium repair jobs
- People who want photos of the work — a reviewer notes before-and-after images were supplied without asking
Less suited for
- Major restorations or full roof replacements — nothing in the review record shows a large project, and the company's own paper trail is only three years old
- Anyone who wants recent proof — all 19 Google reviews are at least a year old, so ask for current references
- Homeowners who want to know exactly who they're hiring — no named owner, no team page, and a virtual-office style address
Before you commit
Five questions worth asking
- Your website says over 40 years in the roofing industry, but the company was registered in February 2023 — whose experience is that, and what did you trade as before?
- The ABR shows the company isn't currently registered for GST — how will you be invoicing the job, and will the quote include GST?
- Can I get the ten-year warranty on major services in writing, and which entity stands behind it?
- Is 90 Collins Street where you're actually based, or a mailing address — and where does the crew work out of?
- Your Google reviews all date back a year or more — can you share a couple of references from jobs done in the past few months?
Bottom line
The reviews paint a likeable picture — fast, honest, tidy leak-and-repair work in Melbourne's east — but the record is small, a year stale and effectively anonymous, backed by a 2023 company with no GST registration making 40-year experience claims. Fine to call for a quick repair; for anything major, verify the people and the warranty first.
