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
Roofing Goats carries a perfect 5.0 across 33 Google reviews, and when we read through them the praise is specific rather than generic — people name the work (roof replacements, leak and skylight fixes, gutter guard), name the people (Jesse comes up in the clear majority of reviews), and describe a smooth run from quote to completion. The words that keep appearing are 'professional', 'honest', 'communication' and 'reliable' — a healthy pattern for a residential roofer, because it tells you how they run a job, not just what the finished tin looks like.
Our honest caveat is timing and provenance. The registered company (GOAT HOME SERVICES PTY LTD, trading as Roofing Goats) only took out its ABN in July 2025 and registered the 'Roofing Goats' name in October 2025 — yet the site claims 'since 2001', '25+ years' and '1,200+ roofs'. Both can be true — an experienced roofer starting a fresh brand — but we'd read that 25-year figure as the tradesperson's personal experience the firm is claiming, not the age of this particular business. Almost all the Google reviews are also clustered in the last few weeks, which fits a freshly launched brand rather than a long track record on this profile.
So here's the fair summary from us: the evidence that exists is good and looks authentic (detailed reviews, owner replies to nearly every one, a named founder and master roofer on the About page), but there isn't much of it yet, and we couldn't find an independent second source. We'd say it's a perfectly reasonable firm to get a quote from — just go in treating the longevity claims as something to confirm, and expect a young business rather than an established institution.
Reputation across the web New
The same firm, checked across platforms
⚑ Firm's longevity claims outrun the business's age on the register
The firm's website says 'family owned and operated since 2001', '25+ years experience' and 'over 1,200 roofs completed'. On the Australian Business Register, however, the company (GOAT HOME SERVICES PTY LTD, trading as Roofing Goats) only registered its ABN in July 2025 and the business name in October 2025. This is not necessarily a red flag — it commonly reflects an experienced roofer newly incorporating under a new brand — but the '25 years' should be understood as the operator's personal experience, not the age of this business. Ask them directly to reconcile the two.

Who you'll actually deal with
Jesse-Aaron Raiz — founder, with Shae on the tools
This is clearly an owner-led operation. The firm's About page names Jesse-Aaron Raiz as Founder & Director and Shae as a master roofer with 26 years' experience, and the reviews back that up overwhelmingly: 'Jesse' is mentioned in the clear majority of them, usually as the person who came out to quote and then ran the job with 'his boys' or 'his crew'. Reviewers describe him quoting on the day, being straight about what did and didn't need doing, and staying in touch through weather delays.
For a homeowner, that means you're likely to deal with the owner directly rather than a call centre or a rotating cast of subcontractors — which the reviews credit for the strong communication and 'honest advice' themes. The flip side of an owner-operator model is capacity: a small, hands-on team can only be on so many roofs at once, so timing may depend on Jesse's availability rather than a large scheduling operation.
What clients say
In their own words
Jesse and Shane were very informative and told me exactly what the issues were that needed to be addressed. They even replaced a cracked roof tile for me for free.
Jesse was great. Came to the house to give us a quote. We decided to go with him straight away and we made the right choice. Roof was put in the next week by Jesse and his boys and haven’t had any issues since. 😃
Was great dealing with locals who fully understood demands if the climate in my area. Love the result.
Reviewers consistently highlight honest diagnosis, clear communication through the quote-to-completion process, and durable results, with the owner (Jesse) named repeatedly.
Best for
- Homeowners in the Sutherland Shire / southern and eastern Sydney who want an owner-operator they'll actually deal with directly
- Re-roofing and tile-to-Colorbond replacements, as well as leak and skylight diagnosis and repair
- People who value clear communication and honest scoping over the cheapest possible quote
Less suited for
- Anyone who specifically wants a long-established company with a documented multi-decade track record on this exact business, given the ABN was only registered in 2025
- Buyers who want to cross-check against an independent second rating — there's no ProductReview or equivalent listing yet
- Large commercial or urgent emergency-callout work, where a bigger crewed operation may schedule faster than a small owner-led team
Before you commit
Five questions worth asking
- Your site says 'since 2001' and '25+ years', but the ABN was registered in 2025 — can you walk me through the history and who's holding the roofing licence?
- Can you give me the roofing/contractor licence number and confirm the public liability and workers-compensation insurance is current?
- Will Jesse (or Shae) be on-site running my job, or would it be subcontracted, and who's my point of contact if something goes wrong afterwards?
- What exactly does the '10-year workmanship warranty' cover, and is it provided in writing with the quote?
- For a Colorbond re-roof, can you confirm the material warranty and that you're installing genuine BlueScope Colorbond as the site claims?
Bottom line
We'd call this a genuinely well-reviewed, owner-led Sydney roofer with an authentic-looking (if very recent) review record — well worth a quote, as long as you treat the '25 years / since 2001' claims as something to verify against a business that only registered in 2025.
