There are two types of roof restoration, cement tile restoration and terracotta tiles restoration, each requiring different procedures.
Cement tile restoration
Cement tiles tend to become weathered and loose the original roof coatings generally after 20 years and look dirty and worse for wear. So by giving the tiles a high water pressure clean and applying a three coat sealing system they can be restored to look like new, giving your house a refreshed appearance, saving you thousands of dollars by avoiding replacing your old tiles with new and expensive ones and adding value to your prized investment.

Terracotta restoration
Moss tends to grow on Terracotta tiles after a few years, which sometimes, if left to grow uncontrolled, can have an adverse affect on the performance of your tiles due to the fact that on extreme rainy conditions the water courses on the tiles may block and cause leaks. Also, after many years the mortar on the capping and valley areas tends to crack and start to fall away, again, possibly leading to leakages.

- Application of pool chlorine to kill and soften all the moss and fungus on the tiles
