Awesome experience from start to finish. Brilliant job on my roof, strongly recommend Show reply
The start date for our job was delayed, but this was fortunate for us because, as it turned out, the original start date was no longer convenient for us. The work was completed within the stated time frame. The guys were polite, friendly, punctual, efficient and considerate. They cleaned up after themselves and were easy to work with. They listened to us and discussed any concerns we had, and dealt with them. Show reply
The installer came early and carried out the work in a seamless and trouble free manner. He removed all the rubbish and left the yard as he found it. The product has worked well for us as we wanted it to keep birds out of the roof. Looks good and works well. Show reply
Our New Roof – We were very please with the quality of the final product. Our roof looks like it’s brand new. Out tradesman Ashok was very friendly and kept us informed on what the process was. We would strongly recommend Roof Seal if your looking for a refreshed roof Show reply
Highly recommend Roof Seal – From the moment we were quoted to have our roof cleaned, sealed and painted we were very impressed with the whole experience. We were constantly updated on the progress of the job and found all workmen to be punctual, professional, really nice guys and very tidy. The house has been completely transformed and we are constantly receiving comments as to how great it looks. Feels like a new home Show reply

I paid $15,000 for what Roof Seal marketed as a “premium” roof restoration at my property. Unfortunately, the experience has been deeply disappointing. The facts: * The roof coating failed twice within months of installation, showing bubbling, peeling, and stripping. * The job remains defective and unfit for purpose, despite being sold as a… Read more
premium restoration.
* I was assured the work would not involve subcontractors—a major selling point—but subcontractors were used.
* The work was completed in unsuitable weather conditions, despite my clear request to postpone due to rain concerns.
* Communication was consistently poor: delays, unanswered emails, and repeated broken commitments.
My complaint escalated all the way to the Managing Director. Despite this, the company refused a refund, even though these repeated failures clearly meet the definition of a major failure under Australian Consumer Law (Section 267), which gives consumers the right to reject a service.
I have just lodged a formal complaint with Consumer Affairs Victoria and will escalate to VCAT if necessary.
I’m sharing these facts so others can make an informed decision. Based on my experience, exercise extreme caution before engaging Roof Seal.

I was recommended by a friend who had used roof seal and they were very happy with it. Right from the start the guy that came to give me a quote was punctual easy to communicate with told me all the facts and offered me a price to do the job . He is… Read more · 3
not at all pushy. and I was glad to receive a reduced price on the agreement of having a sign at the front of my house. The weather has not been very good, which made it hard for them to get started, but Luke came and got the job done in a few days. There was a part of the roof that had been quoted, but didn’t need the work done to it so my initial price was reduced. Paul popped in a couple of times just to see how things were going and came at the end to do a final inspection . The reception staff very kind and thorough in their job that they had to do. Everybody was very respectful and easy to get along with and I’m very happy with the job done.
Follow-up · Unfortunately, my follow up. It’s not as good. Don’t get me wrong. I still think the house looks great in the color matches it perfectly. But I know we have had heavy rain. My roof still leaks in the same spot. I pointed out to all staff that attended the job. After paying over $12,000 I would’ve expected better very disappointing.

Negative reviews
In my previous review I recommended Roof Seal and commended their customer service. That was until they had my money and then their customer service evaporated. It took over 4 weeks to get a response to a leak in my newly resurfaced roof. By then there was water damage to the ceiling in my kitchen. It has been anther six weeks and I’m still… Read more
waiting to hear from them regarding repairing my ceiling. No response to any emails following numerous phone calls. I wouldn’t recommend this company to any one.
Thank you for responding to my SMS after several… Read more
I truly cannot believe this organisation is still in business. First they give you the hard sell, then we can knock off $$$$ by signing up today. High pressure sales tactics. What they don't tell you is their trades are franchisees so the work quality ranges from terrible to good, very dependant on the individual franchisee. When you have… Read more
problems (as you inevitably will) they "ghost" you and will try their very hardest to wiggle out of their supposed warranty. Never again!

We received 4 quotes and Roof Seal was $16,000, second quote was $8,500, third quote was $7,500 and last quote was $6,500. It amazes me that Roof Seal are almost double our second quote and WAY TOO EXPENSIVE. They do a lot of advertising on TV and radio, and I guess someone needs to pay for that. Obviously, their customers. If you read this,… Read more
please do yourself a big favour and get more quotes to save money and more importantly get job done just as well for value for money.

I would definitely recommend Roof Seal to anyone looking for a reliable and professional roofing service.

From quote to finish roof, I could not be happier with the staff, consultants and tradesman that completed my repaint and leafguard install. I would highly recommend them Show reply
Roof Seal did an outstanding job on our roof. When we discovered water was coming in through our roof, we contacted Roof Seal. They came to our house and did an inspection and our roof was certainly in need of repair. When the job was started, they always let us know when they’d arrive and what stage in the process they were at. Once finished, it… Read more · 1

Whilst our metal roof was in great condition the red colour was hindering our colour choices in modernising the look of our house. We have no regrets in using Roof Seal to renovate our roof. The whole experience has been very positive and much cheaper than reroofing. We are in a conservation overlay area and feedback from neighbours had been… Read more · 1
good. Our roof is now a very convincing shale grey colour. The effect is much better than a standard respray. The communication from Roof Seal and the contractor sent out to do the work have been very good. The roof prep and materials used are to a high standard. We are very happy to recommend Roof Seal. They have also been very proactive re after sales feedback even though there are no issues.

How to lose your hard earned money to overchargers – These people massively overcharged my sister, I can't believe how unscrupulous some of these cowboys can be. Do not use them or at the very least make sure you get lots of quotes, they just come and act like the job is so huge to get a big payday. Next thing you know someone's been there for a short time and you're in the hole for a big unreasonable bill which is three times what you should have been charged.

Satisfied and appreciative customer – From start to finish there was good communication and flexibility in timing. Salesperson guided us through the options and explained the process well with a soft sell approach. Solar removal and return was efficient which minimised lost generation. The worker who performed the roof clean and seal was excellent. Courteous, took great care of our… Read more · 1
property when redirecting downpipe runoff and then when running pressure hoses to roof and moving them around. He was careful with cleaning over spray not to impact adjacent properties and the clean up afterwards was immaculate, Quality work and communicated to us as things progressed. Would very much recommend this team to others, we are very happy with the end result and go into the coming Winter with confidence.
