Roof - When to Replace, Repair or Restore
Replace your roof
If you want to change the material on your roof or your roof is just beyond repair an entire roof replacement is in order. If you are extending you home it may be worthwhile to replace the entire roof so that you maintain continuity throughout you home.
Repairing your roof
If on the whole your roof is in good condition, you may be able to save big bucks by repairing the areas that need particular attention. Remember though doing too many spot repairs may see your roof end up as a patchwork of irregular areas and can look quite unpleasant. Tiles are often difficult to match and availability of like materials should be a consideration when thinking of going with the option to spot repair.
Restoration of your roof
Roof restoration involves the repair of damaged materials on your roof and the spraying of a chemical treatment to remove lichen and moss. Before you set a pressure hose onto your roof, be sure to get an experts opinion on whether the pressure could further damage your roof surface. A restorer may also offers to apply a coat to ensure consistency of colour, the advantage of which is that the treatment usually comes with a warranty.
