A repair fixes a specific problem, a broken tile, a leak, some storm damage. A restoration is a full treatment of the whole roof: cleaning, repointing, replacing damaged tiles and applying protective roof paint. Restoration adds years of life to the roof and tidies up how it looks. We’d suggest a repair for isolated issues, and a restoration once the whole roof is aged or weathered.

In Melbourne we suggest at least twice a year, once in autumn after the leaves drop and again in spring before the wet season. Homes with a lot of trees around them, or in bushfire-prone areas, often need it more often. Left blocked, gutters can push water back into your roof, walls and foundations.
