Ray, Matt & crew worked tirelessly to get the job done. They did an Excellent job!Posted on Google Andrew WightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ray and the team were delightful to deal with right from the first moment. Ray's passion for roofing and building (and life!) are incredible and he runs a tight ship. They also went above and beyond to touch up paint and fix a cracked tile. After initially struggling to even find a roofer who would return our calls at all, we're grateful that we ended up discovering Fortified. You'll have to look long and hard to find someone better.Posted on Google sumegh patneTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing work. Quick, efficient, considerate, inclusive, on schedule. Can’t find any fault. Especially, Matthew. Well done job!Posted on Google Ana VanderleerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Fortified roofing were great throughout the whole process. Very prompt with the quote and replies. Very easy to pay and make business with. They did an excellent job on our roof removing the old asbestos roof and putting in a new roof colour bond on the same day. We checked when they were finished and it looks amazing, ever since we haven't had to use our heaters because the insulation in the new roof is excellent.Posted on Google Andrew McDougallTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great ServicePosted on Google Lisa MBTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic experience with Fortified Roofing. With all the rain Brisbane has experienced this past year, and Cyclone Alfred looming, we were very nervous about the state of our old tile roof. Matt and his team (and especially Ray) were professional, friendly and worked tirelessly - right up to the last possible moment before the weather turned too bad – to make sure everything was secure and ready. During and after the cyclone, our new roof held up beautifully. If you’re looking for a roofing company you can trust, especially in high-stress situations, Fortified Roofing can’t be beat.Posted on Google Claire DaltonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I reached out to Matt who installed our roof prior to purchasing our property. Unfortunately, our builder installed a patio roof which didn't meet code and caused leaking. Matt fixed the issue withoiut delay and his communication was excellent. I can't fault this company and would use them again.Posted on Google Nirmal SinghTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hi had Matt and his team replace an old roof on my old Queenslander using colorbond They did a fantastic job completed the job promptly Left the place clean and tidy Looks fantastic Thanks Matt couldn’t be happier !Posted on Google Marko MaljkovicTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional from quote to completion. Highly recommended.Posted on Google Suresh IyengarTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I took quotes from five different roofing installers. I consider myself lucky to come across Oz Roofing (Fortified roofing group). Matt Turnbull and his father seventy year old Ray Turnbull are both down to earth people. They were honest, fair and guided me to make the right choice of roofing to replace my asbestos roof. Ray was present throughout the process of re-roofing and took special interest to make sure the job is done perfectly. I will have no hesitation to recommend Fortified roofing for their honest, friendly and fair dealings.
