Roof Restoration Melbourne

Roof restoration is when the roof’s surface is restored to its original condition. The roof can be cement tiles, colourbond, metal, or terracotta tiles.

Moreover, if the porosity of the roof is an issue, then the roof needs to be replaced because the application of any coatings/paint will not be a long-term solution and cost you more in the long run.

Steps For Roof Restoration

  1. Detailed inspection to assess what action is necessary.
  2. Replace any broken tiles, checking water courses to ensure your roof is waterproof so there is no leaking during the cleaning process.
  3. High-Pressure Cleaning using water pressure at 4000psi. To remove all dirt, moss, mould, and lichen we have a clean surface to apply the sealer/primer.
  4. Valley Irons – remove old rusted valley irons and replace them with new ones if required.
  5. Flashings – check, repair, or replace if necessary.
  6. Re-bedding – remove all the old bedding (mortar), blow clean the surface, and lay out the new bedding.
  7. Re-pointing – all the ridge, hip, gable, and valley tiles will be repointed. The pointing compound is flexible and will not crack as it is specially formulated to adhere to the ridge tiles.
  8. Gutters Cleaned – all leaves, dirt, rubble, and debris are removed.
  9. Painting of the roof
    1. anti-fungal spray applied
    2. sealer/primer coat applied
    3. colour coat is applied
    4. the top coat of colour applied
  10. We will leave you with six painted spare tiles on site.

Industry Terms

Rebedding & Repointing

Rebedding and repointing is the cement work on a tiled roof that secures and waterproofs the ridge capping, gable ends, and valleys.

It’s vital that the bedding and pointing are in good condition because this will protect your property from leaks, pests, and storm damage.

For more information about rebedding and repointing a roof, see our blog roof repointing cost. For more information on flexible roof repointing and what it is read out “What is flexible roof repointing?” blog.

Roof Valley & Valley Irons

Valley irons are the metal flashing under the cut tiles in the gully that runs up the roof.

Properties over 30 years old are likely to have significant rusting of the valley irons. It is much cheaper to replace the valleys simultaneously with rebedding and repointing.

For more information about roof valleys, see our blog ‘What is a roof valley‘?

Weep Holes

Weep holes are placed at the bottom of the pointing in ridge capping to allow excess water to escape from behind the bedding and pointing.

See our blog Weep Holes in a tiled roof.

Couldn't recommend these guys highly enough. Had Steve and his team over to put a new tile roof on our extension. Great value, great job. Even came round at the drop of a hat to fix a tile moved by my sparky!

Steve and his team did a fabulous job, I was away working whilst the work was in process , but saw the progress for each of the first two days in the evening and on the third day the final touches were done. The work looks first rate and all of the old gutter was removed very neatly without any drama or mess. It was a pleasure to deal with Steve who was very friendly and accommodating, plus the price was considerably cheaper than that quoted by a rival company. I'm now just waiting for it to rain!

Steve, Andy and his team were absolutely fantastic to deal with throughout the entire roof replacement process. Initially, Steve provided an excellent priced quote for a colourbond roof, then an agreed start date was organised. Andy and his team arrived at 7am on the start date and swiftly got on with the job.They also tackled another tricky job when replacing the roof; altering and replacing an existing previously poorly installed guttering issue by another plumber. Their solution was excellent and we were very impressed!Photos were taken whilst they were on the roof throughout the build and texted to me to show me their progress, which was much appreciated. Final cleanup was thorough and pleasing. I would highly recommend this company, not only for their professionalism but their very high standard of workmanship.

Steve was very punctual with coming to assess our roofing situation. He discussed with me every aspect of the job required for the replacement of our very old tin roof.This all happened at a particularly busy time for Steve's company and he kept me up to date with the preparation of the job. Once it started it was a very slick operation completed within 4 days. I wasn't there during the day but saw the results of progress each afternoon. They have done a very neat professional job and I am very happy with the result. Steve was a pleasure to deal with. Well done.

Our roof looks amazing, we had over 70 cracked tiles, they replaced those and the roof needed re pointing as well as it was flaking and damaged. Due to weather it took a few weeks and to ensure it looked perfect Matty & the team delayed works but kept us in the loop all the time, but it was worth wait. Our roof looks brand new. They clean up of the site afterwards, ensure you happy with that and nothing is too much trouble. Thank you
