Roof restoration services

Most Ascot Vale roofs do not need replacing. A restoration cleans, repairs and re-coats what is already there, and usually costs a fraction of a new roof.

01

Full roof restoration

High-pressure clean, tile repairs, ridge re-bed and re-point, then sealer and a fresh coat of membrane paint.

02

Ridge cap re-bed and re-point

Cracked or loose ridge capping lets water into the roof space. Re-bedding in fresh mortar and flexible pointing fixes it.

03

Roof repainting and sealing

Restore colour and protect tiles from moisture and moss with a quality acrylic coating.

04

Leak detection and repair

Find the source, from cracked tiles to failed ridge bedding, and repair it properly.

05

Tile replacement

Matching cracked, slipped or missing terracotta and cement tiles so the roofline stays intact.

06

Gutter cleaning and roof inspection

Gutters cleared of leaves and debris, plus a condition check of your tiles, bedding and pointing so you know what the roof needs.

Ascot Vale roofs, up close

Ascot Vale older streets were built in two waves, the 1880s land boom and the recovery after it in the early twentieth century. The Ascot Vale Estate precinct covers buildings from about 1880 to 1930, with terraces, Queen Anne villas and Edwardian homes.

Roofs here tend to be old, and many still carry original terracotta. Terraces share a roofline with their neighbours, so ridge and tile work needs care at the join, and ridge pointing and tile repairs are the most common jobs.
