Roofer Business TrainingYou learned to lay a roof from a bloke on a job. Nobody ever taught you to run the business.
Roofing training in Australia teaches you to detail a valley and fall a box gutter. It does not teach you to price a restoration, read a P&L or hire a second crew. This page is about the training that covers everything after the trade.
The week this is about
Sound Like Your Roofing Business?
Your ticket covers heights, not overheads
You hold the working at heights ticket, the licence and twenty years on tin. Nothing in any of that taught you what a job should cost, when to put a price up, or how to read the numbers your accountant sends in October.
You learn business by losing money on jobs
Every lesson so far arrived as a loss: the tile job that ran three weeks, the subbie who never invoiced, the two-storey re-roof you priced at single-storey money. It works, slowly, and each lesson costs you thousands.
There is no time for a course in storm season
You are on a roof by six thirty and quoting at nine at night. A weeknight classroom or a two-day workshop in the middle of a hail run is not something you can physically do, so you keep putting it off.
Twenty years of experience laying roofs and five years of experience running a business, repeated four times over, because nothing you learned ever got written down.
Training
Here Is What We Do About It.
The Learning Hub gives you the full lesson library inside the Tradies App at $199 a month, watched at five in the morning or in the ute at smoko. Business Foundations puts you in weekly live sessions hosted by Greg Allan, working on your roofing business with owners doing the same thing.
How it works
Three Steps, Starting Tonight.
Start tonight, for nothing
Join the free Tradies App and the starter courses open straight away. No card, no trial clock counting down while you are still on site.
Work the module that matches the problem
You do not start at lesson one and work through the lot. You start at the thing that is costing you money this month, and the library is organised so you can find it.
Take it live
Business Foundations runs weekly with Greg Allan, so the module you watched on Tuesday gets pressure tested against your actual numbers on Thursday.
Why Greg
You speak to the owner who has already done it.
Greg built Response Electricians in Perth into a 30+ staff business with 1,950+ five-star reviews. A general manager runs it.
He has trained 9,000+ trade business owners across Australia and New Zealand.
He grew a coaching company to 35 staff, a CEO and 15 coaches, then cut it back so every owner deals with him directly.
Most coaching companies hand you to a salesperson, then to a coach who has never run a trade business. Here you get the owner.
What changes for you
The old way. The new way.
More customers meant more people doing the computer work, and more wages nobody invoices.
You stay with your customers and your team. The office stops landing on you.
The old way
More jobs. More paperwork. Less of the owner left.
Most trade businesses grow the same way.
More jobs means more quoting, invoicing, chasing and scheduling.
None of it gets paid for.
So the owner does it at night, after a full day on site.
Or hires an office person to do it.
The office grows. The wages grow. The margin does not.
And the owner is still the one everything waits on.
Where we take you
More work. More profit. More of you left.
The phone rings with the jobs you want, at the price you set.
You grow when you're ready, never faster than the business can carry.
Every job is priced to make money, so the busy months show up in the bank.
The best tradies in your area want to work for you, and they stay.
The chasing, the paperwork and the 9pm admin stop landing on you.
The business runs the day. You pick which parts of it you're in.
Bigger, without the headaches. Getting bigger stops meaning getting busier.
What changes
What Roofing Business Training Actually Changes.
Three things roofing business owners walk away able to do.
Read your own numbers and know which roofing jobs actually made money
Price a restoration and a full re-roof from your costs, not the bloke down the road
Run a week where the crew works without you standing on the ridge
