Kangaroo Roof Restoration The hills
Trading name of Kangaroo Roof Restoration The Hills (a registered business name of Kangaroo Roof Repairs and Construction Pty Ltd) · 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
We'd happily recommend this one to a friend in the Hills. When we checked the ABN it matched cleanly to a GST-registered company that's been active for about five years, and the Google record — 4.9 from 53 — is deep and specific rather than a handful of vague five-stars. What reassured us most is that the reviews name real people doing real work: 'Sahil' appears in roughly 19 reviews and 'Peter' in about 11, consistently as the two principals who quote, communicate and carry out the jobs themselves. One reviewer specifically valued that 'the guys who quoted the job done the work' — a good sign you're dealing with the actual tradespeople, not a call centre.
The detail in the reviews is the best evidence here. There's a standout account of Sahil replying to a leak inquiry at 2:15am after a big downpour and having it fixed within 24 hours; several reviews of Peter preparing insurance reports and managing solar-panel removal and reinstatement during restorations; and repeated praise for honest, options-based quoting — balancing cost against time, and offering part-payments on larger jobs. The service picture backs this up: the firm's bread and butter is leak repair and full tile-roof restoration — cleaning, re-pointing, replacing broken tiles and painting — plus storm and insurance work.
Two things we'd flag, kindly but clearly. First, there's a single one-star review (no text, posted recently) sitting among 52 five-stars; with no second review source to triangulate against, it's worth knowing about — though one unexplained rating against a long run of detailed positive ones isn't alarming. Second, this reads as a small, two-principal operation focused on residential restoration and repairs in the Hills district — excellent at that, but not the profile of a large commercial re-roofing contractor, and capacity will be tighter than a big firm's.

Who you'll actually deal with
Sahil and Peter — the two hands-on principals
There are two clearly-named people running the work. 'Sahil' (about 19 mentions) is the one most often on the roof — inspecting, detecting and fixing leaks, and doing the physical restoration; reviewers describe him as prompt, fair and genuinely helpful, including responding in the middle of the night during storms. 'Peter' (about 11 mentions) is credited with the quoting, clear communication, options-based advice and the insurance-report side of things. Several reviews thank the two of them together, which paints a picture of a tight, two-principal team.
For a homeowner, the upside is direct accountability and continuity — the people who quote are the people who do the job. The trade-off is scale: a two-person core team has limited capacity, so book ahead, and if you have a large or commercial project, confirm they have the crew to resource it before committing.
What clients say
In their own words
Sahil came to fix a leak in the roof. He provided excellent service and price. I really appreciated that he did the job quickly as he knew rain was coming over the weekend and save further damage from happening and did a great job.
Peter and his team were very professional and proficient. Our roof looks completely new after all the extensive and thorough work. Would highly recommend their services. Thank you!
Excellent professional & customer centric service. The whole engagement from start to finish in relation to replacement of couple of roof titles was hassle free. Sahil & team did a great job… Thank you
The recurring themes are fast, reliable leak repairs (often ahead of incoming rain), high-quality full restorations, honest options-based quoting and strong communication from Sahil and Peter, with insurance work handled end to end.
Best for
- Urgent tile-roof leak repairs — the reviews repeatedly praise fast responses, including out-of-hours during storms, and leaks that stayed fixed
- Full residential roof restoration — cleaning, re-pointing, broken-tile replacement and painting, with care taken around solar panels
- Insurance and storm-damage claims where you want the roofer to inspect, quote reasonably and prepare the report for your insurer
Less suited for
- Large commercial re-roofs or big metal-roofing jobs — this is a small, two-principal residential restoration team, not a large-scale contractor
- Anyone who needs guaranteed instant availability — a two-person crew works quote-first and books ahead, so capacity is limited
- Buyers who want a corroborating second rating — there is no ProductReview listing, so Google (including one unexplained one-star) is the only source
Before you commit
Five questions worth asking
- Will Sahil and Peter personally quote and carry out my job, and who else is on the crew for a larger restoration?
- For a full restoration, does the quote itemise cleaning, re-pointing, tile replacement and painting, and what workmanship guarantee applies (in writing)?
- For an insurance claim, do you prepare the report and liaise with my insurer, and is that included in the price?
- Can you confirm your roofing licence details and that the same team quoting will do the work?
- If solar panels or delicate areas are involved, how do you manage removal, reinstatement and protection during the job?
Bottom line
A genuinely solid, owner-run choice for tile-roof leak repairs and restoration in Sydney's Hills district — a verified five-year-old company, two named hands-on principals (Sahil and Peter), and dozens of detailed reviews. The only caveats we'd give you are its small scale and a single-platform review picture that includes one unexplained one-star.
