Roof Restore – Auckland’s Trusted Roof Painting & Restoration Specialists At Roof Restore, we believe your roof isn’t just a shelter — it’s the backbone of your home’s protection and street appeal. Based in Auckland, we specialise in roof painting, restoration, repairs, and maintenance for residential properties across the North Shore, Central Auckland, and West Auckland. With years of hands-on experience and an eye for detail, we’ve built a reputation for quality craftsmanship, honest communication, and long-lasting results. What truly sets Roof Restore apart is that we’re not just another franchise or faceless roofing company. We’re a local, owner-operated business built from the ground up by Dave Ridge, a qualified roofer with a passion for helping homeowners protect and revitalise their biggest investment. Dave still gets on the tools, ensuring every job — from a small repair to a full roof restoration — meets the same high standards he’d expect on his own home. Our Story – Built on Hard Work and Kiwi Values Roof Restore was born out of a simple idea: to provide genuine, reliable roofing services without the sales fluff. After years of working in the trade, Dave saw a gap in the market for a business that truly prioritised customer satisfaction and transparency. Too often, homeowners were left with overpriced quotes, poor workmanship, or short-lived results. So, he decided to do something about it. Starting small, Roof Restore grew through word-of-mouth referrals — not flashy ads — because clients loved the honesty, communication, and quality they received. Whether it was repainting an old concrete tile roof, replacing corroded spouting, or repairing leaks others couldn’t fix, Dave’s team approached each project with a problem-solving mindset and a down-to-earth attitude that Kiwis could relate to. Over the years, Roof Restore has expanded into a full-service operation, offering everything from moss treatments and repointing to full metal roof replacements and asbestos removal coordination. But despite the growth, the company remains grounded in its roots — hands-on, family-oriented, and proud to serve local communities. What Sets Us Apart ✅ Owner-Operated Expertise Every project is overseen by Dave himself — not just a sales rep or subcontractor. That means the person quoting your roof is the same one ensuring the work gets done right. This hands-on approach ensures accountability, precision, and pride in every detail. ✅ Full Roof Solutions, Not Quick Fixes We don’t just “paint over” problems. Before applying our premium coating systems, we perform a thorough roof inspection, replace any cracked tiles or corroded flashings, re-bed and repoint ridge caps, clean moss and lichen, and ensure your roof is watertight. Only then do we apply industry-leading paint systems like ShieldCoat, Dulux Acratex, or Resene Roof Systems for a flawless, durable finish. ✅ Premium Coating Systems with 10-Year Warranties Our paint systems are designed for New Zealand’s harsh coastal climate, providing excellent UV resistance, flexibility, and colour retention. Each job includes a written 10-year coating warranty and a 12-month workmanship guarantee for your peace of mind. ✅ Specialists in Concrete Tile and Metal Roofs We’re experienced with all major roofing profiles — from aged concrete tile roofs that need full restoration to Colorsteel long-run metal roofs that require re-coating, ridge cap replacement, or valley flashing repairs. No matter the roof type, our team knows the correct preparation and product application techniques to make it last. ✅ Comprehensive Service from Start to Finish We handle everything: scaffolding, edge protection, moss treatments, repairs, spouting replacements, asbestos removal coordination, and full repainting. That means less hassle and more value for our clients — one team managing it all. ✅ A Reputation Built on Trust Our hundreds of satisfied homeowners across Auckland speak for themselves. Clients appreciate our honest quoting, flexible scheduling (even in winter), and respectful approach to their property. We pride ourselves on leaving every site clean, tidy, and better than we found it. Our Services Roof Painting & Restoration Bring your roof back to life with a full 3–4 coat professional paint system using ShieldCoat, Dulux, or Resene products. Includes cleaning, repairs, primer, sealer, and colour coats. Roof Repairs & Maintenance Cracked tiles, rusted flashings, leaks, and loose ridge caps — we fix it all. We identify the root cause, not just the symptom. Moss, Mould & Lichen Treatment Extend your roof’s life and keep it looking sharp with our biocide treatments designed to safely remove organic growth. Spouting & Gutter Replacement Upgrade to Marley PVC or Colorsteel spouting options for better water flow and reduced maintenance. Ridge & Hip Repointing We use high-quality flexible compounds for durable, crack-resistant results that stand up to the elements. Full Roof Replacements For roofs beyond restoration, we offer supply and installation of Colorsteel Maxx and Zincalume roofing systems, complete with ridges, valleys, and flashings — all to NZ building standards. Asbestos Roof Removal Coordination We work alongside licensed removal teams to ensure safe and compliant asbestos handling before re-roofing. Insurance Work & Quotes We regularly assist with insurance claims (Vero, IAG, AA, etc.) and provide detailed scopes and photos for approval. Our Commitment to Quality Every roof we restore is treated like our own. From prep work to clean-up, we follow a strict quality process: Full roof inspection and quote with photos. Safety setup (scaffold or edge protection). Moss treatment and thorough pressure cleaning. Repairs, flashing checks, and repointing. Application of 3–4 coat system for lasting protection. Final quality check and client walk-through. We never cut corners because we know that proper preparation is the difference between a roof that looks good for a year — and one that lasts a decade. Meet the Founder – Dave Ridge Dave, the founder of Roof Restore, is a proud Auckland local and a tradesman through and through.

He’s constantly researching better coatings, new equipment, and efficient techniques — all while training his team to deliver the same level of care and detail that built Roof Restore’s reputation.
