Roof Restoration
If you are searching for a local roofing company that specialises in roof restoration call Sandhurst Roofing on 0448 812 800 for a competitive quote and advice.
Roof restoration is when the surface of the roof is restored to its original condition. The roof can be cement tiles, colorbond, metal or terracotta tiles.
If the porosity of the roof is an issue then the roof needs to be replaced because application of any coatings/paint will not be a long term solution and cost you more in the long run.
Steps for Roof Restoration
- Detailed inspection to assess what action is necessary.
- Replace any broken tiles, checking water courses to ensure your roof is waterproof so there is no leaking during the cleaning process.
- High Pressure Cleaning using water pressure at 4000psi. to remove all dirt, moss, mould and lichen so we have a clean surface to apply the sealer/primer to.
- Valley Irons – remove old rusted valley irons and replace with new if required.
- Flashings – check, repair or replace if necessary.
- Re-bedding – remove all the old bedding (mortar), blow clean the surface and lay out the new bedding.
- Re-pointing – all the ridge, hip, gable and the 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.
- Gutters Cleaned – all leaves, dirt, rubble and debris is removed.
- Painting of the roof
- anti-fungal spray applied
- sealer/primer coat applied
- colour coat is applied
- top coat of colour applied
- We will leave you with 6 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 is in good condition because this will protect your property from leaking, pests and storm damage.
Roof Valley & Valley Irons
Valley irons are the metal flashing that is under the cut tiles in the gully that runs up the roof. Properties that are over 30 years old are likely to have significant rusting of the valley irons. It is much cheaper to replace the valleys at the same time as rebedding and repointing.

We contacted Steve from Sandhurst Roofing to get a quote to replace our very old tin roof. He came to quote within a couple of days, we were happy with his quote so gave him the go ahead. Within no time he was here to measure up and told us we could expect his team to be here in a couple of weeks (due to it being the week before xmas). Once the guys turned up, the old roof was off and the new one on in 3 days. I can only say great thinks about this company's professionalism, great tradies, attention to detail and an amazing transformation of our house. It's nice to be able to listen to the rain on the roof and not have to worry about it coming through the plaster any more. Steve, to you and you crew, thanks very much for making a large job so easy and stress free. Gary and Wendy Watson Crib Point

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.

cannot recommend these guys more highly. We had guttering, down pipes and a old tired tin roof painted and couldnt be happier. The guys did a great job and we were more than with the prices. There is a difference when you use tradesmen that care about the customers and enjoy their work. Thanks again Sandhurst Roofing 5 stars from us!

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.

Quick response to request for estimate. Price matched that given by local plumber. Work commenced soon after acceptance of quote and as agreed. Standard of work very good - impressive. Corrugated iron roof replaced with ColourBond - 2 day's work. (New insulation laid over old, no battens replaced, screwed down). Roof no longer leaking and good work around chimney flue. Adaptable to site requirements. Due regard to safety of residents and pets. Excellent site clean-up (choice of remove old iron or keep it). Would use this organisation again.

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
