About Us

Menzel Building Co. is a proudly South Australian, family business specialising in roofing, cladding, guttering, and verandahs. Founded in 2024, the company was created to bring integrity and real service back to the building industry. Now led solely by Tim Menzel—widely recognised in the roofing industry for his distinguished career in roof plumbing. The business continues to grow with a clear focus on premium workmanship, honest communication, and strong local relationships.

We offer tailored roofing solutions across Adelaide and regional South Australia, from the Adelaide Hills and Barossa to the Yorke Peninsula and Fleurieu Coast. Whether it’s a rusted Colorbond® roof that needs replacing, a heritage gutter system that needs restoring, or a verandah custom-built for your lifestyle, every job is completed with long-term durability, sharp attention to detail, and care you can trust.

Having spent years immersed in the corporate world of construction, we began to feel the weight of an industry that too often places profits over people. We saw talented individuals working tirelessly yet receiving little in return—both in recognition and respect. It became clear that the heart of the industry had been lost amidst the pressure of deadlines and numbers. This realisation sparked a deep desire to create something different, something more personal and meaningful—an enterprise where passion for craftsmanship and genuine respect for people would be at its core. Menzel Building Co. was born from the belief that a business should be a reflection of its founders: driven by integrity, nurtured by trust, and built on a foundation of meaningful relationships.

We don’t use subcontractors. Every project is handled in-house, with Tim personally overseeing and working on-site to ensure consistent quality and accountability from start to finish. He’s supported by an apprentice, who’s being trained with the same focus on craftsmanship and care, and by Tara—Tim’s partner—who manages the business operations and client communication behind the scenes. Together, we’ve created a tight-knit team that’s efficient, professional, and deeply invested in every project we take on.

 

 

 

Our mission is simple:

To deliver high-quality, reliable roofing and exterior solutions with honesty, care, and craftsmanship. We believe in doing things properly, treating people with respect, and showing up when we say we will. By keeping our work in-house and staying hands-on with every job, we ensure each project reflects the pride we take in our work and the trust our clients place in us.

Our values are what set us apart: no shortcuts, no pushy sales, and no leaving clients in the dark. We’re here to do good work, build great relationships, and leave every job better than we found it—whether we’re working on a modern coastal home, a heritage property in the city, or a rural farmhouse out in the regions. Every project we take on is a labour of love. We understand how disheartening it can be to deal with large, impersonal firms that treat you like just another number, where delays are common and communication is sparse. At Menzel Building Co., we vow to never let that be your experience. Our commitment to efficiency means that, once we agree on a timeline, you can count on us to complete the job on schedule—usually within four weeks—while maintaining the highest standards of craftsmanship and attention to detail.
