Tick off the checks that matter from first inspection to final payment on a re-roof or re-cladding job.
0 / 15 completed
This checklist follows a typical re-roof or re-cladding job in Australia from the first inspection to the final payment. Tick each item as you go; your ticks are saved only in this browser.
Why these items. Most expensive roofing problems come from the same few gaps: quotes that leave out battens, sarking or gutters; unlicensed contractors; deposits above the legal cap; missing home warranty insurance; asbestos handled without the right licence; and verbal variations that turn into disputes. The checks are grouped so you deal with each at the right time.
How to use it. Work through the first group before you call any roofer, so you can describe the job consistently. Use the second group as a script while each contractor is on site. The third group is your final check before you sign, and the fourth covers the work itself and the weeks after.
Limits. Licensing, insurance and approval thresholds differ between states and can change. Use the official registers and the licence threshold guide to confirm the rules that apply to your job. This checklist is general information, not legal advice.
