“I have a deep respect for the role a roof plays in protecting your home and everything in it.”
For Troy, the job isn’t just about fixing or laying sheets. It’s about showing up, being straight-up, and leaving things better than you found them. From respectful teams and tidy sites, to a focus on long-term quality over cheap shortcuts, a deep regard for homes and homeowners is a hallmark of Troy’s work. And when a job is done, he’ll make sure his clients know how to look after their roof going forward – providing lasting solutions, and peace of mind.
our story
Better Roof is managed by Troy, a seasoned roofer with over 25 years of hands-on experience and a deep respect for the role a roof plays in protecting a home and everything in it.
For Troy, roofing is personal – not just a trade, but a privilege. He knows that when someone calls him, they’re trusting him with one of the most critical parts of their home. That trust matters.
But here’s the thing: most people don’t think about their roof until there’s water coming through the ceiling and by then, it’s too late. Troy is on a mission to change that.
Better Roof isn’t just about showing up when disaster has struck (although he’s exactly who you’d want to call in a crisis). It’s about education, prevention, and empowering homeowners with the knowledge they need to maintain their roof before it needs replacing.
This is also why Troy specialises in roof restoration. He’ll happily replace your roof – skillfully, on time and on budget. But first, he’ll be absolutely sure it needs it. He’s seen too many families misled into thinking they need an entirely new roof when in reality, all they needed was a smart, cost-effective restoration.
If Troy can save you tens of thousands of dollars and weeks of disruption with a restoration that will add 10-15 years to the life of your roof, he will. It’s not just better value, it’s the right thing to do.
And Troy’s built his reputation on doing the right thing.
your roof but better
Restoration
Every roof is different. From cleaning and rust repair to resealing and repainting, we restore your roof based on what it actually needs. No more, no less.

Roof Replacement

people over profit
We built Better Roof to be a business that puts people first. That means honest advice, fair pricing, and doing what’s best for each home – not what’s most profitable for us. We’d rather keep you dry for the long haul than upsell you on something you don’t need.
do what's right, not what's easy
Shortcuts have no place on a roof. Better Roof will do the job properly, every time. Even if it means an extra day, some unexpected graft, or a little less margin. If the finished product isn’t something we’d be proud to put our name to, it doesn’t fly.
BUILT ON TRADITION, SHAPED BY PURPOSE
With decades of hands-on roofing experience and a strong community focus, we’ve seen what works and what doesn’t. We’re not here to churn through jobs. We’re here to raise the standard, train the next generation, and help homeowners feel confident and informed every step of the way.
Trust is earned
Every roof we work on is a chance to earn someone’s trust, and we take that seriously. Whether it’s showing up when we say we will, communicating clearly, or leaving things better than we found them, we’re committed to doing right by our clients and our crew.
Our Values
They’re not just words. They’re how we show up.
At the age of 15, Troy learned roofing the old school way. Back then, tradesmen believed in doing things properly, not quickly. ‘Less haste, more speed’ was the standard, and craftsmanship wasn’t the exception, it was the rule. That foundation still guides Better Roof today. We’re here to do honest work, train the next generation of roofers right, and protect homes with care, not shortcuts.
Your roof, but better
We’re not here to sell you the most expensive fix. We’re here to help you make the right call for your home, your budget, and your future. Whether that’s restoration or replacement, you’ll get clear advice and quality work.
