Better Homes & Gardens

Authentic Roof Australia was certainly the star of the show in the roofing segment of the July 10 episode of Australian lifestyle giant, Better Homes & Gardens.

It easily outshone all other roofing options featured in terms of strength, durability and beauty. Host Rob Palmer couldn't help but be impressed when failed to damage the slates after bashing them with his hammer... Is there any other roofing system who could boast the ability to withstand that!? Check out the clip from the show here.

Be sure to check out the August issue of the magazine to see us mentioned!
