Budget Roofing
Trading name of Pyohay Pty Limited, trading as 'Budget Roofing' · Sydney, NSW
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
Budget Roofing is one of the more substantial outfits among the Sydney roofers we've reviewed: a 4.6 Google average across 59 reviews, an established Padstow company, and a review record with genuine large-scale jobs in it — one customer describes them re-roofing 13 townhouses on a waterfront complex under strict engineer sign-off, with no leaks after multiple heavy-rain events. On their own site the firm says it was established in 1982, is family-owned, and is now run on-site by founder Greg Beaven's children, Mitchell and Ryan — and the reviews consistently name Ryan and Mitch, which backs that story up.
The business is also well-documented on the public record. When we checked, the 'Budget Roofing' business name is held by Pyohay Pty Limited, an active Australian private company registered at Padstow (postcode 2211) — the same address as the listing — with an ABN active since 2000. That's a real, long-standing company, not a fly-by-night operator, and it's consistent (if not a perfect match) with the firm's own claim of decades in the trade.
The honest caveat is why it's a 4.6, not a 5.0: two 1-star reviews sit in the record, and they matter. One customer reports a no-show and unreturned calls for a quote; another reports leaking roof windows after installation, ignored follow-ups, and a complaint lodged with Fair Trading. Neither has a public owner response. For a high-volume firm those are a small fraction of jobs, but they point to a real risk — communication and after-install follow-through can slip. The firm's own site advertises a 7+ year workmanship guarantee and a price-match policy; both are self-claims, so get them in writing before you rely on them.

Who you'll actually deal with
Ryan and Mitchell Beaven — second-generation, family-run
The firm's own about page states Budget Roofing was founded by Greg Beaven and that on-site operations are now led by his eldest children, Mitchell and Ryan. The reviews back this up strongly: Ryan is named six times and Mitch three, both credited with running jobs personally, and other reviews name a wider office/crew team — Chris on site, Lauren for colour selection, Nathan for gutter design — which is consistent with the firm's self-description as a larger team rather than a solo operator.
That scale is the firm's main strength (capacity for big commercial re-roofs, an office to manage quoting and colours) but also where its risk shows: with more jobs and more hand-offs, the two poor reviews both centre on communication and follow-up rather than on-roof workmanship. If you engage them, pin down who your single point of contact is.
What clients say
In their own words
We have been using Budget roofing for many years now and they have always produced a great job at a great price.
Premium work at a budget price. Great communication, quick and clean. Cant fault the team at budget roofing. Would definitely use them again.
Second part of our extension and replacement of old pergola by Ryan and Mitch, an unusual shape area made it more tricky but the boys but done a wonderful job working the odd angles would recommend for price and workmanship Ist picture old pergola area other pictures new extensions!!
Recurring themes are competitive pricing, clean and punctual Colorbond re-roofs, and capable handling of tricky or large jobs — offset by a minority reporting poor communication or unresolved follow-up.
Best for
- Full roof replacements and asbestos-to-Colorbond upgrades, including larger residential and commercial jobs
- Price-conscious homeowners — 'budget price' and competitive quoting is the most repeated praise
- Projects needing a team with office support (colour selection, gutter design, engineer documentation), not a solo tradesman
Less suited for
- Buyers who won't tolerate any communication slip — a couple of reviews report no-shows and ignored follow-ups
- Anyone wanting a flawless-rating boutique operator; the 4.6 reflects a small number of genuinely bad experiences
- Those relying on a strong second review source — ProductReview here is only 4 reviews and mislabelled as closed
Before you commit
Five questions worth asking
- Who will be my single point of contact from quote through to completion, and what's the best number to reach them?
- Can I get the 7+ year workmanship guarantee and any price-match commitment in writing before work starts?
- For my job, can you show photos or references from a similar recent project (size and roof type)?
- What is your process if a leak or defect appears after installation, and how quickly do you return to fix it?
- Can you confirm your current NSW roofing licence and public liability insurance details?
Bottom line
An established, genuinely capable family firm that does most jobs well at a fair price and can take on large re-roofs — just go in with your communication expectations set and the key promises (guarantee, contact person) confirmed in writing, because a handful of poor experiences sit behind that 4.6.
