Setting New Standards in Restoration: How Graham Tulloch and Reztor Are Leading the Industry



In an era where extreme weather events and property damage incidents are rising across Australia, the demand for reliable, standards-driven restoration has never been greater. At the centre of this movement stands
Graham Tulloch, a name widely recognised across the industry for both expertise and integrity.

As a Triple Master Certified Restorer through the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC), Tulloch brings a rare combination of technical knowledge and practical leadership to the Australian market. Today, he is a cornerstone of Reztor Restoration, a firm rapidly establishing itself as one of the nation’s most respected providers of water, fire, and mould restoration services.

A Career Defined by Standards

Certification is nothing new in the restoration space, but achieving triple master status is a distinction held by only a handful of professionals worldwide. Tulloch’s qualifications span Master Water Restorer, Master Fire & Smoke Restorer, and Master Textile Cleaner — an elite trifecta that demonstrates his mastery across the broadest and most complex fields of property restoration.

“Restoration is not just about fixing damage; it’s about understanding how materials respond to stress, how contaminants spread, and how homes and businesses can be returned to a safe, pre-loss condition,” Tulloch explains. “That requires science, precision, and above all, a commitment to standards.”

This philosophy has shaped his role at Reztor, where every project is executed in line with the AS-IICRC S500:2025 Standard for Professional Water Damage Restoration, the gold benchmark for the industry in Australia.

Reztor’s Rising Profile

Founded with a clear vision of becoming Australia’s leading restoration company, Reztor has grown rapidly on the back of two core values: quality output and consistency of service. From Brisbane to Sydney, Melbourne, and beyond, the company has positioned itself as a trusted partner not only for homeowners but also for insurers, builders, and property managers.

Much of this success can be traced to the culture of excellence instilled by Tulloch and the broader leadership team. By embedding international best practices into every aspect of operations — from technician training to equipment deployment and reporting standards — Reztor is elevating expectations across the entire sector.

“Too often in emergencies, homeowners are left vulnerable to poor practices and inconsistent workmanship,” says Tulloch. “Our mission at Reztor is to change that narrative by showing what’s possible when you follow science, standards, and customer-first principles.”

The Value of Expertise in a Growing Industry

As Australia experiences more frequent and severe weather-related events, the restoration industry is expanding at pace. Yet, with growth comes challenges: maintaining quality, ensuring proper training, and differentiating true professionals from opportunistic operators.

In this environment, Tulloch’s presence at Reztor provides both reassurance and credibility. His technical knowledge allows the company to take on highly complex projects — from large-scale flood remediation to sensitive mould decontamination — while mentoring the next generation of technicians within the firm.

“He’s not just a practitioner; he’s a teacher,” notes one colleague. “The ability to pass down his knowledge and instil a culture of compliance and professionalism is what sets Reztor apart.”

Beyond Compliance: Shaping the Future of Restoration

While compliance with standards is essential, Tulloch and Reztor see it as only the starting point. The company is investing heavily in technology-driven restoration solutions, including thermal imaging, real-time digital reporting, and data-backed drying systems that provide insurers and property owners with measurable assurance.

Tulloch has been instrumental in developing these approaches, combining decades of practical experience with a forward-looking mindset. “Technology is changing our industry in ways we couldn’t have imagined ten years ago,” he says. “But technology is only as good as the professionals applying it. That’s why certification, training, and leadership remain critical.”

An Asset to the Reztor Team

Though Tulloch’s credentials and experience are unmatched, colleagues describe him as both approachable and deeply committed to mentoring. His ability to translate complex technical principles into practical field solutions has been invaluable to Reztor’s rapid rise.

For the firm, having Tulloch on board is not about having a figurehead; it’s about embedding a culture of excellence that permeates every technician, every project, and every client interaction.

“He’s an asset not because of his titles, but because of the standards he sets for everyone around him,” one Reztor director explains. “That’s the true measure of leadership.”

Raising the Bar for an Entire Industry

Reztor’s leadership believes that Tulloch’s influence extends well beyond the walls of their organisation. By holding themselves to the highest standards, they are helping to raise expectations across the Australian restoration industry.

From panel relationships with major insurers to projects for commercial property groups, Reztor’s results speak for themselves: faster recovery times, consistent reporting, and quality outcomes that reduce long-term risks for property owners.

At the heart of this capability lies Tulloch’s belief that restoration is not merely a trade, but a discipline — one that deserves the same rigour as engineering, building, or environmental science.

Conclusion

Australia’s restoration industry is entering a new chapter, one where professionalism and accountability will separate the true leaders from the rest. With Graham Tulloch’s expertise and Reztor’s commitment to standards, technology, and customer care, the company is well on its way to becoming the benchmark for restoration excellence nationwide.
