Discover our story...

Founded in 2009, Weatherproof Manufacturing has grown from a small local supplier to one of Nelson's most trusted names in roofing. Our commitment to quality materials, expert advice, and exceptional customer service has earned us a 5.02-star rating on Google Reviews.

2009

The Beginning

Weatherproof Manufacturing was established in Richmond, Nelson by a team of roofing professionals who saw a need for higher quality materials and better customer service in the region. Starting with just three employees and a single delivery truck.

2012

Expansion & Innovation

We opened our first dedicated showroom and invested in custom fabrication equipment. This allowed us to offer made-to-order flashings and specialized components, setting us apart from standard suppliers.

2015

Trade Partnership Program

Launched our trade account services with priority pricing and dedicated account management. Over 100 local builders and roofers joined in the first year, forming the foundation of our trade network.

2018

Waterproofing Division

Added comprehensive waterproofing solutions to our portfolio, including Butynol and torch-on membrane systems. We also became certified installers, offering supply-and-install packages for complex projects.

2021

Major Warehouse Upgrade

Relocated to our current 2,000m² facility at 4a Barros Place, Richmond. The new warehouse tripled our storage capacity and included a state-of-the-art fabrication workshop with CNC bending equipment.

2024

5,000 Projects Milestone

Celebrated our 5,000th completed project. Our team has grown to 25 staff, and we now operate a fleet of 8 specialized delivery vehicles serving the entire Nelson-Tasman region.
