About — Brisbane Roof Quotes

## Who runs Brisbane Roof Quotes Brisbane Roof Quotes is operated by **Ryan Grzesiak** as a sole trader, ABN **95819133402**. The business is based in Brisbane, Queensland. Ryan's background combines years of being around the Brisbane roofing industry (talking to roofers, walking jobs, understanding the trade) with a software engineering background that built the website, the lead-matching infrastructure, and the data pipeline that powers the suburb pages. The Brisbane Roof Quotes network is a curated group of licensed Queensland roofing contractors. When a homeowner submits a quote request, we match them with two to three local roofers who specialise in the kind of work they need (heritage, storm-damage, insurance, standard re-roof). ## Why this service exists After the October 2025 Brisbane hailstorm, more than 11,000 homeowners filed roof damage claims and many struggled to find local roofers with capacity to quote in a reasonable timeframe. The big national lead-marketplaces dominate paid search and the local-business map pack, but local Brisbane roofers were drowning in cold leads from interstate panel companies that didn't know the suburbs. Brisbane Roof Quotes exists to connect that demand with local contractors who can take on the work, using deep local context (heritage overlays, salt-air zones, post-storm patterns) to match each lead to a roofer who can actually deliver. ## How we make money We are paid by the roofers when they accept a matched lead. Homeowners pay nothing for quotes. This is the standard "pay-per-lead" model used by the rest of the industry, but with two differences: we are an independent operator rather than a national marketplace, and we are explicit about the model on every page. The disclosure is also a legal requirement under Australian Consumer Law for matching services. ## What we are and aren't **We are:** an independent quote-matching service. We curate a network of vetted local Brisbane roofers, route leads to them based on suburb and job type, and operate the website, content, and data infrastructure that makes the matching work. **We are not:** a roofing contractor. We don't do roof work ourselves. If you need urgent emergency tarping or in-person consultation, the roofers we connect you with handle that. We're upstream of the actual work. ## How we research and update content Every suburb page on the site carries real, unique local data: housing era mix, heritage overlay coverage, October 2025 hail zone, typical 2026 quote ranges. The data comes from: - Brisbane City Council heritage layer and planning portal - Queensland valuation roll data for housing era mix - Post-event Insurance Council of Australia significant event declarations - Aggregated claim rate data from our network roofers - Brisbane Roof Quotes network quote observations from the past 12 months Every suburb page shows a "Last reviewed" date in the hero. Every blog post shows publish and (where applicable) updated dates. The full dataset is published openly at /data under CC BY 4.0 so you can verify or cite it. Content is updated as we observe market changes (price moves, new council rules, post-storm scheduling shifts). If you spot something out of date, email info@brisbaneroofquotes.com.au. ## Editorial standards The blog posts on this site are written in a first-person voice grounded in industry experience. They include specific dollar figures, named suburbs, named materials, and named institutions (Brisbane City Council, AFCA, Insurance Council of Australia). When we cite a number, it's either from our own observations or from a publicly verifiable source. We don't accept paid placement in blog posts. Roofers in our network can't pay for favourable coverage. The only commercial relationship with roofers is the pay-per-lead matching service. ## Contact Email: info@brisbaneroofquotes.com.au For lead matching, use the quote form at the top of any page (90 seconds, no obligation). For corrections, data questions, or media enquiries, email is the best channel.
