Terracotta Tile Roof Restoration

A terracotta tile restoration is similar to a cement tile restoration - the difference is that you seal the terracotta tiles using a high gloss sealer, instead of painting them with a roofing membrane.

Our Terracotta Tile Roof Restoration Process involves:
    • Replace all cracked and broken tiles. Even if they are fractured they will be replaced.
    • Apply a mould rid to the entire roof to prevent the re-occurrence of any form of mould or fungi.
    • Pressure clean the entire roof area. Our pressure cleaners are all 4000psi, the machines are this size so that they remove all the mould and lichen, all the dirt and take the tile back to a bare surface.
    • Remove the ridge capping and re-bed if needed. If the ridge capping is loose it will need to be re-bedded so that they are secure for us to re-point them.
    • Re-point all ridge caps with a polymer based flexible pointing mortar. This is troweled on and because it’s a flexible mortar, this is applied as it will not crack with the normal movement of your home for example the expansion and contraction from heat and cold.
    • Weep holes are then installed into the flexible mortar to allow for any moisture to run out (If these are not installed the roof will leak in continuous rain).
    • The roof is then thoroughly blown off with a petrol blower/vacuum and if necessary will be swept with a hard bristle broom. All the gutters and valley irons will be cleaned free from debris and your downpipes will be flushed.
    • Apply 2 or more coats of terracotta sealer. This is applied with an airless paint sprayer to get the right consistency.
    • The final stage of the roof restoration is the “final inspection” the involves both yourself and a Master Roofing team member going over the roof restoration to ensure that you are happy the roof restoration.
