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
Your Local Roofers is one of the busier and better-reviewed Sydney roofers we've looked at, and the evidence backs that up rather than just the star number. The company is a properly registered Australian private company (ABN 19 653 057 955, active since 2021), and its Google profile carries a 4.8 average across 500 reviews with a healthy spread: 437 five-star against just 7 one-star. That volume matters — a firm doing this many jobs a month simply can't hide a systemic quality problem behind a handful of glowing reviews. What comes through consistently is competent, tidy, well-communicated work across the bread-and-butter jobs homeowners actually need: leak diagnosis and repair, tile repointing, gutter and downpipe work, restorations and full re-roofs.
The people signals are strong too, which we don't often see in a roofer this size. Reviews repeatedly name the same tradespeople by first name and thank them personally, and photo documentation of the work stages comes up again and again as a genuine point of difference. One detailed review describes a full metal re-roof over solar panels — panels carefully removed and refitted, and a fastening system chosen to avoid penetrating the sheeting — which is the kind of specific, technical praise that's hard to fake. The firm says on its own site it's family-owned and operated, runs a 24/7 emergency line, and is fully licensed and insured; the reviews line up with a well-run operation, even if we can't independently verify every self-claim.
Our honest caution is price, and the second source is where it shows. On ProductReview the firm holds a lower 4.5 from 61 reviews, with 'Rates and Fees' its weakest sub-score and a minority of reviewers complaining that quotes came in high — occasionally much higher than competitors. That doesn't make it a bad firm; it makes it a firm we wouldn't engage on the first quote alone. Get their scope and their number in writing, then compare against one or two others, so you're paying for the quality this team clearly delivers rather than a premium you didn't shop.

Who you'll actually deal with
A named crew rather than one owner-operator
Unlike a one-person business, Your Local Roofers reads as a genuine team operation, and the reviews name that team unusually often. Luke and Jamie appear together across multiple recent jobs (five mentions each in the mined sample), and Brad recurs on leak and repointing work; other tradespeople such as Sam, Will, Grant, Charbel and Haydn are also thanked by name. That breadth is a good sign for capacity and consistency, but it does mean the person who quotes you may not be the person on your roof, and at least one reviewer noted the quote, measure and install were handled by three different people.
The firm's About page presents it as family-owned and operated and does not put a single principal's name front and centre, so we've treated leadership as team-level rather than attributing it to one named owner. The register does confirm the business trades as a company across several Australian cities under the 'Your Local Tradie Group' banner, so treat 'your local' as a brand promise delivered by a sizeable multi-city crew, not a single neighbourhood operator.
What clients say
In their own words
Brad and Damien done an excellent job the roof looks like new and they explained why the roof leaked and fixed it thanks for your help
Had a really good experience with the team. Organised a quote with no fuss and got the job done quickly. The team also clarified invoice questions afterwards. Would recommend if you want to make sure issues are resolved and covered by warranty.
Many thanks to the team at Your Local Roofers for a great job on my tile roof. Lachlan, Grant, and Charbel were very professional and conscientious. Attention to fine detail and punctuality made the process worthwhile. I highly recommend them.
Recurring themes: leaks correctly diagnosed and fixed, tidy well-communicated jobs, photo documentation of the work, and named tradespeople thanked personally, offset by occasional pricing pushback.
Best for
- Homeowners with a leak or tile problem who want it properly diagnosed and photographed, not just patched
- Tile repointing, restorations and full re-roofs where you value tidy sites and clear stage-by-stage communication
- People who want a licensed, insured, GST-registered company with a long review track record rather than a cash-in-hand operator
Less suited for
- Bargain hunters, since the independent second source flags pricing as its weakest area and some quotes come in high
- Anyone wanting a single owner-operator on the tools from quote to completion, as work here is spread across a rotating crew
- Homeowners who want to deal strictly with a neighbourhood outfit, given this is a multi-city company trading under many local-sounding names
Before you commit
Five questions worth asking
- Can I have the full scope and the fixed quote in writing, including what happens if extra work is discovered once you're on the roof?
- Will the person who quotes me be on site for the job, or will a different crew do the work?
- What exactly does your workmanship warranty cover, for how long, and how do I make a claim if a leak returns?
- Are you licensed and insured for this specific job, and can you show me the licence and current insurance certificate?
- Will you provide before-and-after photos of the completed work, as several of your reviewers received?
Bottom line
We'd be comfortable handing this team a leak, a tile job or a full re-roof — a well-run, properly registered outfit with a 4.8 Google score and a solid 4.5 on an independent second source. Just don't take the first quote at face value: price is the one area where the evidence says to shop around.
