Roof restoration services
Most Keilor East 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.
Full roof restoration
High-pressure clean, tile repairs, ridge re-bed and re-point, then sealer and a fresh coat of membrane paint.
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.
Roof repainting and sealing
Restore colour and protect tiles from moisture and moss with a quality acrylic coating.
Leak detection and repair
Find the source, from cracked tiles to failed ridge bedding, and repair it properly.
Tile replacement
Matching cracked, slipped or missing terracotta and cement tiles so the roofline stays intact.
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.
Roofs in Keilor East
Keilor East is mostly post-war and later housing, with many brick homes under cement tiles and some terracotta. Roofs of this age typically need the ridge re-pointed and the tiles cleaned and recoated. The era tells a roofer what the job involves, so say which one you have in the quote form.
City View Estate homes
Early homes on the 1955 subdivision, on high ground overlooking Essendon, mostly brick with cement or terracotta tiles.
Brick family homes
Brick homes built as the suburb grew, around the time the Keilor Heights schools opened in 1963 and 1969.
Later homes
Later homes under concrete tiles. Open, elevated sites can expose ridge and hip capping to wind.
Keilor East roofs, up close
Keilor East was subdivided as the City View Estate in 1955, on high ground overlooking Essendon, with its western edge running along the Maribyrnong River. Housing followed through the late 1950s, 1960s and 1970s.
Elevated, open sites can be more exposed to wind, which works at ridge and hip capping over time. Most roofs are 50 to 70 years old, with cement and terracotta tiles, and the bedding is often the first thing to go.

Roof restoration questions
Straight answers to what Keilor East homeowners ask most.
Price depends on roof size, pitch, material and how much repair work is needed. Most homeowners compare two or three quotes. Our form gets you those without ringing around.
Most Keilor East homes take two to five working days, depending on the weather and how much repair the roof needs. Rain delays painting and sealing, so a roofer may reschedule around a wet week.
If the tiles on your Keilor East home are structurally sound, restoring is usually the lower-cost option and extends the life of the roof by many years. A local roofer will tell you when replacement is the better call.
Like-for-like roof restoration in Keilor East usually does not need a permit. Heritage overlays can apply to parts of Keilor East and can affect tile colour and material, so check with your council before you commit.
