MetroMap Transforms Efficiency for Oz-Roof

Oz-Roof is a family-owned roofing business specialising in roof restoration, painting, and guttering services. Known for trusted service and quality workmanship, the company uses modern tools and methods to deliver efficient, reliable solutions for homeowners.

Roof restoration has always been a time-consuming process. Traditional quoting meant long drives to each property, tape measures on site, and repeat visits just to confirm the details. For both contractors and homeowners, that often resulted in wasted hours, higher costs, and slower turnaround times.

Oz-Roof is redefining roof restoration quoting with MetroMap’s aerial imagery platform saving hours of manual work, streamlining workflows, and delivering faster, more accurate results for customers in Brisbane.

We spoke with Justin Hewett, founder of Oz-Roof, about how MetroMap has changed the way his business works. From remote roof measurement to improved efficiency and customer experience, Justin shared how aerial imagery has become a core part of their quoting process, saving hours every day and delivering quotes that customers can trust.

For homeowners, that means quotes arrive faster, pricing is more accurate, and projects move forward without delays. For Oz-Roof, it means less time on the road, significant cost savings, and the ability to focus on delivering quality workmanship rather than admin.

The Challenge

For years, quoting roof restorations meant long days on the road, tape measures in hand, and repeat visits to confirm details. Not only was this costly, but it slowed down the customer experience.

As Justin says: “I used to drive out, win the job, then go back again to measure everything. It could take hours each week just for site visits.”

This traditional approach strained time and resources, creating pressure to take on more work just to cover quoting overheads.

The Solution

By adopting MetroMap’s high-resolution aerial imagery, Oz-Roof eliminated the need for unnecessary travel and manual measuring. The team now:

  • Measures roofs and gutters remotely with accuracy. No tape measures, no wasted trips.
  • Uses MetroMap’s image archive to check for past changes such as colour updates or solar installations.
  • Relies on fresh imagery to provide customers with confidence in every quote.

The Results

The impact on efficiency for Oz-Roof has been significant:

  • 3–4 hours saved every day by removing unnecessary site visits.
  • Thousands of dollars saved annually on fuel, vehicles, and staff time.
  • Streamlined quoting, allowing the team to focus on customer value rather than logistics.

As Justin puts it, “The business could never have run the way it does now without MetroMap. For the cost of the subscription, it saves us multiple times that every month.”
