Terms & Conditions

Roofing Services

These Terms & Conditions govern your use of the Roofers Direct NZ website and the services available through it.

By accessing this website, submitting an enquiry or requesting a quote, you agree to these Terms & Conditions.

If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use the website.

About Roofers Direct NZ

Roofers Direct NZ provides an online service that helps customers looking for roofing services connect with independent roofing contractors and service providers throughout New Zealand.

Customers can use the website to request quotes and provide information about residential, commercial and other roofing projects.

The physical roofing work itself is carried out by independent third-party contractors or businesses.

Roofers Direct NZ does not directly employ or supervise the contractors carrying out those services unless expressly stated otherwise.

Requesting A Roofing Quote

You can submit a quote request through the website for roofing services including:

New roofs
Re-roofing and roof replacement
Residential roofing
Commercial roofing
Roof repairs
Roof maintenance
Metal roofing
Membrane roofing
Flat roofing

When submitting an enquiry, you agree to provide information that is reasonably accurate and complete to the best of your knowledge.

This may include your:

Name
Email address
Phone number
Property or project location
Project details
Measurements
Photos
Plans or other relevant information

Providing incomplete or inaccurate information may affect the ability of a contractor to assess or quote the project.

What Happens to Your Quote Request

Information submitted through the website may be provided to an independent roofing contractor or service provider who may be able to assist with your project.

The contractor may contact you directly to discuss the work, request further information, arrange a site visit or provide a quote.

Submitting an enquiry does not create a contract for roofing work between you and Roofers Direct NZ.

It also does not automatically create a contract between you and any contractor.

Any agreement to undertake physical roofing work is entered into separately between you and the contractor you choose to engage.

Contractor Availability

Submitting a quote request does not guarantee that:

A contractor will be available in your area
A contractor will accept the project
A quote will be provided
A particular timeframe can be met
A particular price or roofing finish will be available

Contractor availability can vary depending on location, project type, workload and other circumstances.

Independent Roofing Contractors

Unless expressly stated otherwise, contractors introduced through Roofers Direct NZ operate as independent businesses.

They are responsible for their own:

Quotes and pricing
Site assessments
Advice
Workmanship
Employees and subcontractors
Equipment
Insurance
Health and safety obligations
Licences, registrations or qualifications where applicable
Building work
Compliance obligations
Warranties or guarantees they provide

Roofers Direct NZ does not control the day-to-day work undertaken by an independent contractor.

Your Agreement With A Contractor

If you choose to proceed with a contractor, the agreement for the physical roofing work is between you and that contractor.

Before accepting a quote, you should make sure you understand:

The scope of work
The total price
Whether GST is included
Payment terms
The proposed roofing system and materials
Preparation and repairs included
Underlay, flashings and fixings
Drainage or gutter work
Removal and disposal of old materials
Expected timeframe
Any warranties offered by the contractor
Any exclusions from the quote

You should ask the contractor directly about anything that is unclear before accepting their quote.

Checking A Contractor

Customers should make their own assessment of whether a contractor is suitable for their project.

Where relevant to the work, you may wish to check matters such as:

Experience
Insurance
References
Qualifications
Registrations or licensing
Examples of previous work
Written quote
Terms of trade
Warranty information

The checks that are appropriate will depend on the nature and value of the project.

Pricing & Quotes

Prices, cost guides and other pricing information published on the Roofers Direct NZ website are general information only unless expressly stated otherwise.

Actual roofing costs can vary according to factors including:

Roof size and pitch
Roofing material or system
The condition of the existing roof
Preparation and structural repairs
Access, scaffolding and edge protection
Flashings, underlay and fixings
Drainage and gutter work
Removal and disposal of old roofing
Building height and complexity
Location and exposure

Any quote supplied by an independent contractor is provided by that contractor and is subject to the contractor’s own terms and conditions.

Roofers Direct NZ does not set or guarantee the prices charged by independent contractors unless expressly stated otherwise.

Information on This Website

We aim to provide useful and reasonably accurate information about roofing services.

However, website content is provided for general informational purposes and should not be treated as project-specific engineering, structural, building, legal or other professional advice.

Every property and roofing project is different.

Requirements may vary according to:

Roof design and pitch
Existing materials and roof condition
Building plans
Structural or engineering requirements
Drainage and weatherproofing details
Wind zone and coastal exposure
Building consent or local authority requirements

Professional or specialist advice should be obtained where appropriate for the individual project.

Building Consents, Engineering & Other Requirements

Some roofing projects may require plans, engineering input, building consent or other approvals depending on the building and the nature of the work.

Responsibility for confirming applicable requirements should be agreed between the customer and the contractor or other relevant professional before work proceeds.

Information provided on this website about consent, engineering or construction requirements is general information only.

No Guarantee of Particular Results

While we aim to make it easier for customers to find roofing services, Roofers Direct NZ does not guarantee:

That a contractor will accept your project
The quality or outcome of work performed by an independent contractor
Completion by a particular date
A particular project price
That a contractor’s quote will be the cheapest available
That a particular roofing product, profile, colour or system will be available

Any warranties or guarantees relating to physical roofing work should be confirmed directly with the contractor undertaking that work.

Issues With Contractor Work

If an issue arises with work carried out by an independent contractor, you should contact that contractor directly in the first instance.

Because the agreement for physical roofing work is normally between the customer and the independent contractor, matters relating to:

Workmanship
Payment
Delays
Variations
Defects
Property damage
Warranties
Completion

should generally be addressed directly between those parties.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to limit any rights or remedies that you may have under New Zealand law.

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Roofers Direct NZ is not responsible for the acts, omissions, workmanship, pricing, delays or other conduct of independent contractors introduced through the website.

Roofers Direct NZ is also not responsible for indirect or consequential loss arising from your use of the website or your dealings with an independent contractor, except to the extent that liability cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any rights, remedies, guarantees or protections that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable New Zealand law.

Consumer Rights

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit any rights you may have under applicable New Zealand consumer law, including the Fair Trading Act 1986 and, where applicable, the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993.

Where any part of these Terms conflicts with a right or obligation that cannot legally be excluded, the applicable law will prevail.
