Overview
Roofing in Australia is height work tied tight to the build program. You are installing metal and tiled roofs, fascia, gutter and downpipes on new builds, plus re-roofs, leak repairs and storm work, often racing to get a roof on before the next trade or the next weather front. When the builder's program slips, your start slips, and your progress claim waits with it.
Alongside many other roofing contractors across Australia, the ones who stay ahead manage booked jobs tightly, keep crews working across sites, and chase progress claims hard. Roof sheeting, battens, flashings and fixings go out the door before the job is paid, and builder and commercial work can mean 30-day-plus waits on progress claims while you carry the cost of materials and a crew on multiple roofs at once.

Common questions
Most keep a working-capital buffer so they can cover materials and wages while progress claims clear. Mixing faster-paying re-roof and repair work with slower builder jobs smooths the cash flow across the month.
Running several jobs at different stages and lining up re-roofs and repairs alongside new-build work keeps crews productive when one site stalls. A quiet gap still costs you the wages, so booking ahead protects your margin.
Weather delays on fixed-price jobs, material price rises and underquoting the access and edge-protection setup. Quoting the real job, charging for safety setup, and building in a weather buffer protect what you actually keep.
