Roof Restoration
A tired-looking roof usually isn't a failed roof. Restoration cleans it up, fixes what's worn and puts a protective coat back on.
What to look for
Signs you need this work done
Australian sun is hard on a roof. Coatings chalk off, pointing cracks, and moss takes hold on the shaded side. If the tiles and the structure underneath are still sound, restoration gets the roof back to a serviceable, good-looking condition for a fraction of what a replacement costs. If they're not, we'll tell you that before you spend anything.
Faded, chalky or patchy roof colour
Years of UV break down the original coating. It's cosmetic at first, but once the surface is porous the tiles start absorbing water.
Moss, lichen or black staining
Common on the southern side and under trees. It holds moisture against the tiles and lifts them slightly over time.
Crumbling pointing along the ridge capping
The mortar between ridge caps is usually the first thing to go. Once it's cracked, water and vermin have a way into the roof space.
A structurally sound roof that lets the house down
If you're selling or the place just looks tired, a restoration makes a bigger visual difference than almost anything else you can do outside.

Why Renovaroof
Why people go with us
We find the cause, not just the wet patch
A leak rarely starts where it shows up inside. We track it back to the flashing, valley or cracked tile that's actually letting water in, so the repair holds.
You'll get the honest option, including 'do nothing yet'
If your roof has years left in it, we'll say so. We'd rather quote you for a repair now and a restoration in five years than sell you a re-roof you don't need.
Itemised quotes, no moving numbers
You'll see what's included before we start. If we find something unexpected up there, we stop and talk to you about it rather than adding it to the invoice.
The same crew from quote to clean-up
The person who inspects your roof is across the job when the work happens. Nothing gets lost handing your job between a salesperson and a subbie.

Common questions
Roof Restoration questions
Usually a few days for a typical home, spread across cleaning, repairs, pointing and coating. Each stage needs the roof to be dry, so wet weather can stretch it out. We'll give you a realistic timeframe with your quote rather than an optimistic one.
Considerably, as long as the tiles and roof structure are still sound. Restoration is about getting more life out of what's already there. If your roof is past that point, we'll say so. Restoring a roof that needs replacing just wastes your money.
Yes. The warranty terms are set out in writing with your quote, so you know exactly what's covered and for how long before you commit to anything.
Yes. Roof coatings come in a solid range of colours, and we'll go through the options with you when we quote. Worth checking your local council or estate rules first if you're in a newer development.
Every year or two is a reasonable rule of thumb, plus a look after any decent storm. Picking up a cracked tile or failing pointing early is a much smaller job than dealing with the water damage it causes later.
