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
Heritage Roofing Group is the most clearly specialised firm of the Sydney roofers we've reviewed, and it checks out on paper: HERITAGE ROOFING GROUP PTY LTD has held an active, GST-registered ABN since 2021, based in Brookvale, with a tidy set of on-brand trading names (Heritage Slate, Heritage Copper Roofing, Heritage Lead Roofing). The website names directors Kyle Glasby and Luke Godden, and says Kyle holds a Certificate III in traditional slate roofing — a genuinely specialist credential for this kind of work.
When we read the reviews, they back the niche up strongly. Instead of generic 'great job' praise, people describe demanding heritage work: replacing 100-plus-year-old Welsh slate with Canadian Glendyne slate, zinc dormers and bullnose verandahs on an 1881 Woolwich cottage, copper and zinc contracting on 'exclusive homes'. Several reviewers are trade professionals themselves — a copper roofer, builders — endorsing them as sub-contractors, which is an unusually credible signal. If you own a slate, shingle, copper, zinc or heritage-listed roof, this is exactly the kind of firm you'd want on it.
The honest caveats are scope and price. This is a premium heritage/slate specialist, not a general repair or restoration outfit — most reviews describe full replacements or specialist work, and one reviewer put it plainly: 'worth every cent'. So if you've got a standard concrete- or terracotta-tile suburban roof that just needs a leak fixed, this is probably more firm (and more cost) than you need. There are also two terse one-star reviews we'd suggest reading in context before you decide (see the flag).

⚑ Two disputed one-star reviews
Two of the reviews are one-star with only a few generic words ('Bad service. Away from this company.') and no detail. They were posted within about a minute of each other from accounts with little history, and the owner publicly replied to both saying he had no record of dealing with either person and believed they were fake/part of a smear campaign, asking for details — to which neither responded. We can't verify what happened either way, but the pattern (two near-simultaneous, content-free negatives with no follow-up) is unusual, and every other review is a detailed five-star account. Read them with that context.

Who you'll actually deal with
Kyle Glasby (director) and Luke Godden (co-founder)
There are named, accountable principals here. The firm's About page identifies Kyle Glasby and Luke Godden as founders with 'over 30 years combined experience', and states Kyle holds a Certificate III in traditional slate roofing and a licence to trade. Kyle is by far the most-mentioned person in the reviews and personally responds to nearly all of them, and the site says at least one director is on-site at all times — a strong hands-on-ownership signal for specialist work.
Reviews also repeatedly name the crew (Andrew, Steve, Jackson, Toby), and trade clients describe an established team they've worked alongside for years. So this reads as a genuine specialist company with a real crew and directors who are visibly involved, rather than a faceless brand.
What clients say
In their own words
Heritage roofing did an excellent job on the roof of my Heritage House. The team were professional, thorough, very easy to have on site, and delivered work of an exceptional standard.
Kyle, Jackson, and Toby were fantastic in the replacement of our roof and gutters. The quoting was efficient and accurate. The guys worked hard to get the job done on time. We are very impressed with the results.
Kyle and his team have been our primary Slate, Copper and Zinc contractors for many years, working on exclusive homes. They run a very tight and punctual operation with first class quality, knowledge and tradesmanship. They are a highly competent and professional operation.
Reviewers consistently praise the firm for specialist slate/copper/zinc heritage work of an exceptional standard, accurate quoting, punctual well-run crews, and directors (especially Kyle) who are hands-on and communicative — with several endorsements from fellow tradespeople.
Best for
- Owners of slate, shingle, copper, zinc, lead or heritage-listed roofs needing restoration or full replacement to a high standard
- High-end and period homes where craftsmanship and traditional materials matter more than lowest price
- Builders and trades needing a specialist slate/metal sub-contractor with directors on-site and a real crew
Less suited for
- Standard concrete- or terracotta-tile suburban roofs needing a simple leak fix — likely more specialist (and more cost) than required
- Buyers primarily chasing the cheapest quote — this is positioned as a premium heritage specialist
- Anyone wanting a second independent rating source; Google is the only one, alongside a Houzz photo profile
Before you commit
Five questions worth asking
- Is my roof material (slate/copper/zinc/lead/tile) squarely in your specialty, and can you show recent examples of similar work?
- Will a director (Kyle or Luke) be on-site, and who will run the day-to-day crew on my job?
- Can you confirm your NSW roofing/building licence and current public liability insurance in writing?
- What slate/metal products would you use, where are they sourced, and what workmanship warranty do you provide?
- How is the quote structured for a heritage job, and what could cause variations once old materials are removed?
Bottom line
A verified, genuinely specialist slate and heritage roofer with named, credentialed directors and standout examples of high-end work — if your roof is slate, copper, zinc, lead or heritage-listed, we'd point you here without hesitation. For an ordinary tile-roof repair it's likely overqualified, and we'd suggest reading the two disputed one-star reviews in context first.
