Get roofing leads in Australia

Roofing requests on LokalMatch come from homeowners who have already answered the questions a roofer asks first: repair or replacement, whether water is coming in, the type of home and what the roof is made of. You read those answers before you spend anything.

What a roofing lead shows you

Every {lower} request answers these questions before it reaches you. Follow-up questions appear only when an earlier answer calls for them.

A repair with an active leak is a different job from a planned asphalt-shingle replacement or a flat-roof membrane quote, and the lead preview makes that clear up front. Homeowners also say how soon they need someone, from an emergency to a flexible date, so you can match requests to your crew’s calendar.

  1. Do you need a repair or a replacement?

    • Repair
    • Full replacement
    • Inspection or estimate
    • Not sure — I’d like advice

  2. Is there an active leak?

The guide homeowners get on this site

We publish a roofing guide for homeowners. It is written for them, not for us, and its headings are a fair list of what someone who has read it will ask you about.

Read the roofing guide

What the guide covers

  • Roofing materials on Australian houses: steel sheet, concrete and terracotta tiles
  • Licensing for roofers and roof plumbers, state by state
  • Home warranty and domestic building insurance before you hand over a deposit
  • Signs an Australian roof needs attention, from rusted laps to slipped ridge capping
  • Timing roof work to the Australian year and the storm season
  • Storm damage and why nobody should climb up there in a hurry
  • Guttering, leaf litter and what your roof feeds: stormwater and rainwater tanks
  • What a re-roof involves, from wind classification to the final roof plumbing

Questions it answers

  • Do I need a licensed roofer in Australia, or can anyone do it?
  • Is a new roof covered by home warranty insurance?
  • Can I replace my own gutters?
  • Is metal or tile better on bushfire prone land?
  • When should I have the roof inspected?
  • The roof sheets on my older house might be asbestos cement. What now?

What roofing leads cost

LokalMatch sets lead prices by service and location. You see the price of each lead before you decide, and you pay only when you choose to connect.

Current lead price

Pricing is set per request.

Licensing notes by province

Our provincial permit guides don’t list a licence specific to this trade. That isn’t legal advice: check with your province or territory and your municipality before you take on work.

How matching works

Requests are matched by published rules that are the same for every pro.

How we rank and match pros
  • You receive a request only for services you offer and haven’t excluded, in the areas you serve.
  • Your account must be active, with your email address and phone number verified, and you must be accepting new requests within the daily or weekly limits you set.
  • Requests reach you only with timings you accept, such as emergencies, and budgets that aren’t clearly outside the range you work in.
  • When more pros fit than a lead allows, we give more weight to an exact service match, how directly you cover the area, verification, how quickly you reply and, once you have at least three published reviews, your rating. Never to who pays more.
  • Each lead goes to a limited number of pros, and you see that number before you decide.

Invalid leads and refunds

If a lead turns out to be invalid, you can ask for a refund review from your dashboard. We look at each request and let you know the outcome. A lead may qualify when:

  • The contact details are wrong or don't work.
  • It duplicates a lead you already received.
  • It isn't a real request for work.
  • It's outside the services or areas you listed.

Verification you’ll need

Before you receive leads, you confirm your business email and phone number with one-time codes. Business registration, licence and insurance details are optional during sign-up; once our team checks them, your profile shows what was verified and when.

  • Contact details verified

    You confirm your business email and phone number with one-time codes. This is required before you receive leads.

  • Business registration checked

    Our team reviews the registration details you provide.

  • Licence and insurance checked

    Where your trade calls for a licence or insurance, we review what you provide.

Verification shows which details were checked and when. It isn’t a guarantee of workmanship, and it can’t be bought.

Read how verification works

Getting set up for roofing work

  • If your crew can get to leaks quickly, accept emergency timing in your lead preferences. If you only quote replacements, leave it off.
  • Say in your profile description which roof types you work on, so homeowners with metal, cedar or flat roofs know what to expect.
  • Add photos of roofs you’ve finished. Homeowners compare profiles after you connect, and your own project photos help.
