Roof Cleaning and Restoration & Protection
Over time, the elements and environmental factors take their toll on your roof. From the 1950s traditional slate roofing tiles declined in favour of cheaper pre-cast concrete tiles. Often available in vibrant colours architects favoured these roof tiles as they complemented their bright, modern designs. Unfortunately pigment and pre-cast technology was not as advanced as it is today, and the original vibrant colours faded to their now familiar dull look. In addition, quality varied and some tiles had a design life of only 25 years. Today in extreme cases the tile surface breaks down, becoming porous, retaining moisture and encouraging the growth of unsightly moss, green mould and lichens. The retained moisture also increases the weight on the roof trusses and ultimately leaks to the inside walls, showing up as damp patches. Long lasting roof protection with our modern solution saves the expense and inconvenience of a new roof. Your home is probably your largest investment, so keeping your roof which is the single largest exposed surface area in good condition is imperative. The cost of a completely new roof can in some cases require a remortgage which is why our Roof renovation offers a long lasting protection system for your roof and is a far cheaper alternative to re-roofing. Our sequence following an enquiry is as follows.
1. We visit your property, take measurements and inspect the roof.
2. We supply you with a fully itemised written quotation. (No pressure selling)
3. Hydro-clean the roof roving all moss and other pollutants.
4. Replace any broken tiles and repoint any ridge and hip tiles where necessary.
5. Apply a full fungicidal wash to kill off any microscopic root spores.
6. Apply 2 coats of the selected coating, using an airless spraying machine. (This specialist machine ensures perfect coverage and no mess)
7. A thorough clean is then completed – leaving your property looking like new.
