ROOF IN NEED OF ATTENTION AFTER YEARS OF WEAR
This Melbourne property featured a large tiled roof that had developed visible aging and surface deterioration. The original coating had faded significantly, with noticeable streaking and a dull, patchy appearance. Valley trays, ridgelines, and the decorative gable end were all showing signs of wear and weather exposure.
The goal was to completely restore the roof’s protection, improve visual impact, and extend its performance without requiring a costly full roof replacement.
STEP-BY-STEP RESTORATION PROCESS
HIGH-PRESSURE CLEANING
The roof was pressure washed using high-output equipment to strip away dirt, lichen, moss, and loose material. This stage revealed the tile’s raw condition and allowed a close inspection of key areas like flashing points and ridges.
TILE REPAIRS AND REPOINTING
We replaced damaged tiles as needed and re-bedded the ridge capping. Fresh pointing was applied using a flexible, crack-resistant compound designed to move with the roof structure over time.
PRIMING AND SEALING
A roof-specific primer was used to stabilise the tiles and lock down the porous surface. This ensures the top coat bonds uniformly and won’t peel or flake over time.
ROOF COATING IN HERITAGE GREEN
Two coats of a premium-grade roof membrane were applied in a custom heritage green finish. The result is a uniform, watertight finish with high UV resistance, suited to both suburban homes and leafy green neighbourhoods.
GABLE END RESTORATION
The timber gable end was cleaned, primed, and coated to match the fresh roof colour. This detail added sharp visual contrast and a neat, finished look.
A CLASSIC ROOF GIVEN NEW LIFE
The finished result speaks for itself. The roof is now protected from the elements, visually upgraded, and built to last for many more years. The new coating improves thermal reflectivity and creates a consistent appearance across all sections, including the solar panel zones and valleys.
