Types of roofs we restore
We are experts at bringing a lot of different roofing materials back to their former glory. This way, your roof will look great and protect your home or business for a long time. Our professional team is skilled and experienced enough to handle any roofing problem. We can install traditional tile and slate roofs as well as modern metal and Colorbond roofs.
Tile
The main goal of tile roof restoration is to fix or replace individual tiles so that the roof stays waterproof and looks the same. This process usually includes cleaning, re-sealing, and re-pointing. This gives your home a finish that lasts and keeps its good looks.
Terracotta
Terracotta tiles are known for their warm, earthy tones and classic appearance. They are a popular choice for Mediterranean-style homes and offer excellent durability and weather resistance. As part of our terracotta roof restoration services, we clean, fix, and seal the tiles to keep their natural beauty and make them last longer.
Concrete
Concrete tiles are a versatile and cost-effective option, offering a range of styles and colors to suit different home designs. Though long-lasting, they may fade or crack with use. We repair concrete tile roofs by cleaning them, replacing broken tiles, and protecting them with coatings that last longer and look better.
Slate
Slate tiles are prized for their sophisticated, natural look and exceptional longevity. Nevertheless, they necessitate specialised care to preserve their integrity. Our slate tile restoration services encompass the meticulous replacement of damaged tiles, the reinforcement of the roof structure, and the preservation of the inherent beauty of your slate roof.
Metal
Metal roof restoration involves repairing or replacing panels and addressing any rust or corrosion. Our team uses high-quality coatings to protect your metal roof from the weather. This way, it will last for years and years and still look great.
Colorbond
Colorbond roof restoration focuses on restoring the vibrant finish of your Colorbond roof while repairing any damage caused by the elements. This encompasses the application of protective coatings, repainting, and cleaning to guarantee its long-term functionality.
Tin
Tin roofs are lightweight and relatively easy to maintain, but they are susceptible to rust and corrosion over time. Our tin roof restoration services include removing rust, sealing any leaks, and applying a protective coating to extend the roof's life and keep its sleek appearance.
Copper
Copper roofs boast exceptional durability and evolve a distinctive patina as time goes by, a feature that many homeowners find appealing. Neglecting proper maintenance can lead to issues like corrosion and staining. Experience the transformation of your copper roof with our meticulous restoration process. We begin by thoroughly cleaning the surface, followed by expertly repairing any damaged areas. Finally, we apply specialised treatments to enhance and protect the roof's inherent beauty and functionality.
Corrugated iron
Corrugated iron is a popular choice for its strength and classic look, but it can become dented or rusted with age. We fix up corrugated iron roofs by replacing broken sheets, getting rid of rust, and painting them with a new coat of paint to make them last longer and look better.
Zinc
Zinc roofs are known for their longevity and resistance to weathering, but they can still suffer from corrosion and require periodic maintenance. As part of our zinc roof restoration services, we fix any damage, clean the surface, and put a protective coating on it to keep it in great shape.

Signs your roof needs restoring
Leaks
If you notice leaks or water stains inside your home, it’s a clear sign that your roof needs restoration to seal damaged areas and prevent further water damage.
Cracked or broken tiles
Visible cracked or broken tiles indicate that your roof is vulnerable to water infiltration and needs restoration to replace the damaged tiles.
Moss and algae growth
The presence of moss or algae on your roof suggests moisture retention, which can lead to decay and requires cleaning and treatment during restoration.
Damaged flashing
Loose or corroded flashing around roof joints and edges is a sign that restoration is needed to prevent leaks and secure these critical areas.

Weather damage
Signs of damage from storms, hail, or high winds, such as missing shingles or dents, mean your roof needs restoration to repair and reinforce affected areas.
Ageing roof
If your roof is approaching or has surpassed its expected lifespan, even without obvious damage, it’s a sign that restoration may be needed to extend its durability.
Granule loss
If you notice granules from shingles accumulating in your gutters or around your property, it’s a sign of shingle wear, indicating that roof restoration could be necessary.
Roof discoloration
Uneven colour or dark streaks on your roof can indicate the presence of algae, mold, or deteriorating materials, suggesting a need for restoration.
Higher energy bills
Unexpected increases in energy bills could be a sign that your roof’s insulation or ventilation is compromised, pointing to the need for restoration.
