Our Team

I’m Blake, proud owner operator of Metalhartt. I have 20 years of experience and a passion for excellence. Alongside Tyler and Ryan, I lead our team with dedication and expertise. Our leadership ensures that every project is completed to the highest standards, making us a trusted name in the roofing industry.

In my spare time, you’ll find me hiking, hitting the slopes or collecting art.

I left school not knowing what I should do like a lot of young people, Mum pushed me towards a building apprenticeship which proved to be a great decision. Following the completion of this I took up an unique opportunity to work on a re-roofing contract on Vomo island in Fiji with my brother Blake and unknown to me our future general manger Ryan who would come on full time 5 years later. Upon our return to NZ in 2016 Metalhartt Roofing was born.

At work I’m operating behind the scenes pricing jobs, scheduling works and making sure the Metalhartt wheel continues to turn. I get huge satisfaction from providing our clients with a full-service experience from initial contact until job hand over. I’m immensely proud of the team we’ve built over the past 8+ years which is undoubtably a credit to our success.

In my free time you’ll find me playing sports or at the bach in Whangamata.

As the General Manager of our roofing company, I bring a decade of expertise in the industry. With a strong foundation cultivated in the UK, my experience spans diverse roofing projects, ranging from Historic Listed Buildings utilising traditional construction techniques, to 132kV Electrical Substations where Health & Safety Management is paramount. Committed to delivering excellence, I lead our team in providing top-tier roofing solutions with a proven track record of quality craftsmanship.

Meet Bex the organizational backbone of Metalhartt. As the Operations Manager, she brings efficiency and a warm touch to our workplace. Bex plays a pivotal role in our team whether it's resolving logistical challenges or addressing day-to-day hiccups. Her dedication to creating an organised and supportive environment reflects in every aspect of her role, contributing to the overall success of our business.

I joined the Metalhartt team in early 2019, with an extensive knowledge in the construction industry. Throughout my career I have worked on numerous projects ranging from historical churches to new build developments. My focus has always been on providing high-quality results and enjoy the challenging situations the job brings. Outside of work, I prioritize spending quality time with my partner and two sons, recognising the importance of a balanced and fulfilling personal life.
