Roof restoration is the process of cleaning, repairing, and re-coating an existing roof to extend its lifespan and improve its appearance—without fully replacing it. It’s more comprehensive than a simple repair but less invasive and costly than a full re-roof.
What Does Roof Restoration Include?
A typical roof restoration includes:
Inspection – Checking for damage, leaks, or weak spots.
Cleaning – Removing moss, mould, lichen, and dirt with high-pressure washing.
Repairs – Fixing cracks, replacing broken tiles or screws, sealing gaps.
Re-coating or painting – Applying protective coatings to improve durability and aesthetics.
It’s ideal for tiled or metal roofs that are structurally sound but showing signs of wear. In places like Whanganui, where weather can be tough on roofs, restoration is a smart, cost-effective way to protect your property and avoid bigger problems down the line.
What Are The Signs That A Roof Restoration Is Needed?
- Leaks or Water Stains – Damp patches on your ceiling or walls often mean your roof’s protective layers are failing.
- Moss, Mould, or Lichen Buildup – These thrive in damp areas and can damage roofing materials over time.
- Flaking Paint or Rust – Peeling paint or rust spots, especially on metal roofs, signal that your roof’s protective coating has worn off.
- If you notice any of these, it’s time to get your roof professionally assessed.
