Roof restoration

Queensland's environment is harsh. Tile roofs cop a beating from extreme weather events, harsh sun and other destructive forces like abrasive dirt from nearby developments, bats and bird excretions. Over time the protective layer of a tile can fail, making the tile more susceptible to damage. Pressure washing can also reduce the effectiveness of tile, making them look dirty and chalky.

Having your roof restored not only applies a new protective coating but it also allows you to change the look of your home whilst having broken and cracked tiles replaced. The pointing can also be repaired if damaged, ensuring you keep wildlife out of your ceiling space.

A change is better than a holiday

Oils ain’t oils

For those of you who are old enough, you may remember the television commercial with the tag line, “oils ain’t oils”. That still rings true today, and when it comes to roof restorations not all restorations are equal.

It is not uncommon to see a sign nailed to a tree offering roof restorations at an unbelievable price. Time and time again we receive phone calls from desperate homeowners who have had their roof done and deteriorate within a few months. And of course old mates, phone number is no longer connected. Unfortunately, there is too many fly by night operators taking advantage of homeowners. As with all work you should check they are a licensed tradesperson and get testimonials from previous customers.

The reason these predators can do the work so cheap is they simply apply a coat of paint over an existing roof and disappear into the night. Literally. Reputable roof restoration services do the job right, yes they cost a bit more but they do the job right the first time and it lasts.
