Absolutely! A roof restoration is an intelligent and cost-effective solution for homeowners and can undoubtedly be worth it. However, this depends on the state of your roof, your budget, and your long-term plans for the property. If your roof is structurally sound but is starting to show signs of wear and tear, a roof restoration can extend your roof’s life, expand your home’s energy efficiency, and boost curb appeal.

Here are some aspects to consider to assist you in deciding if it’s the best choice for you:

Advantages of a Roof Restoration:

  • Cost-Effective: A roof restoration is naturally more economical than a full replacement. A roof restoration can give your roof a new lease on life without the expensive price tag of a total roof replacement.
  • Extends Roof Life: A roof restoration can prolong the life of your existing roof by 10-20 years, depending on the materials and the state of the roof before restoration.
  • Increases Energy Efficiency: A restored roof can enhance insulation and reflect heat, lowering energy bills, especially in Melbourne’s hot summers. This is especially true when you choose light colours for your roof to be painted in. Light colours reflect the sun’s rays, which lowers the temperature of your home and lowers your bills.
  • Enhances Curb Appeal: Your roof is one-third of your house and is an important factor when it comes to enhancing its appearance. A roof restoration often includes pressure cleaning, re-bedding, re-pointing, replacing valleys, and painting/respraying the surface. This can significantly improve the overall appearance of your home, increasing its value. Environmentally Friendly: A roof restoration is more sustainable than a full roof replacement, as you are reusing the existing structure, therefore preventing the need to discard roofing materials that may end up in landfill.

Less Disrupting: A complete roof replacement may take several days or even weeks, whereas a roof restoration can be completed much quicker and with much less disturbance to your daily life.

Restoring a roof involves several steps to ensure it is structurally sound and weather-resistant. At Enhanced Paint and Roof Restoration, we follow these vital steps;

  1. Inspection: We check for damage like broken tiles, cracked mortar and rusted valleys and flashings.
  2. Cleaning: We pressure clean the roof tiles or metal roof sheets to remove all debris, moss and algae. This ensures a clean surface to restore and paint the roof if needed.
  3. Repairs: We replace any damaged or missing tiles. We also re-bed and re-point ridge caps where necessary. If the valleys or chimney flashings are also rusted, we replace these in order to prevent rust holes where water will seep in.
  4. Repainting: After the surface has been adequately prepared, we re-paint the roof with our three-coat system. This entails one coat of primer or sealer (depending on the condition of the tile) and two top coats of acrylic gloss coating. If painting a metal roof, the process is the same; however, a metal primer is applied before the two top coats are put on.

Maintenance: Maintaining your roof is essential. Having a professional regularly check for damage, clean gutters, and ensure proper drainage is vital to prolong your roof’s life.

Although both involve attending to issues with the roof, there are significant differences in terms of the extent and purposes of each. Generally, roof repairs are limited to smaller areas of your roof and can be repaired without the nearby areas being affected. Roof restoration usually refers to the undertaking of restoring the entire roof and restoring it back to its original state.

Roof Repairs

Roof repairs generally involve repairing specific issues or damages on a roof. This may include leaks, broken tiles, cracked mortar or damaged flashing. We concentrate on addressing the precise problems to restore the integrity and functionality of the roof. Roof repairs usually involve recognising and dealing with specific issues. The main goal of the repair is to ensure that your roof remains in working order and is watertight. Repairs are often accomplished on a case-by-case basis, targeting particular areas of your roof that require attention.

Roof Restoration

A roof restoration comprises a more inclusive method, which goes beyond roof repairs. The goal is to renew and revitalise the whole roof, extending its lifespan and enhancing its appearance. A roof restoration generally includes pressure cleaning, repointing, rebedding, replacing valleys, and painting the roof surface. This is done in conjunction with identifying and fixing any other underlying issues. The purpose of a roof restoration is to bring the roof back to its best condition whilst improving it aesthetically.

Some companies will state that their restorations may last a lifetime. However, this simply is not true. As your roof is outside, in Melbourne’s seasons and elements, wear and tear is natural. However, with a full roof restoration, where every step is completed properly, your restoration should last anywhere from 12 – 15 years. Depending on the structure of the house itself, it may last even up to 20 years!

Light-coloured roofs are a popular choice when taking into consideration energy efficiency. This is because light-coloured roofs reflect a significant amount of solar radiation away from your house. This can aid in lowering your home’s temperature, leading to lower energy bills.

Most definitely! Whilst in the past painting terracotta roofs was a not a possibility, there is now advanced products that now adhere to terracotta tiles and are guaranteed to last. We use Nutech products that are specifically designed for terracotta tiles. Read more on our Terracotta Tile Roof Painting Page

Look out for:

  • Cracked, broken, or missing tiles

  • Mould or moss build-up

  • Water stains on ceilings

  • Leaks or damp spots

  • Faded or peeling paint

  • Rust or corrosion (for metal roofs)

If you’re unsure, book a free roof inspection with us—we’ll give you honest advice.

In Melbourne, the cost of roof restoration typically ranges from $2,500 to $12,000, depending on your roof size, material (tile or metal), condition, and the level of work required.
At Enhanced Paint and Roof Restoration, we offer free, no-obligation quotes so you know exactly what you’re paying for—no hidden costs.

Most standard roof restorations take 2–5 days, depending on the weather and the size of your roof. We always aim to work efficiently while ensuring high-quality results.

Generally, council approval is not required for roof restorations that do not change the structure or height of your roof. However, if you’re in a heritage overlay or doing major structural work, permits may be necessary. We can help guide you through the process if needed.

Yes! Restoring your roof can:

  • Extend its life by 10–15 years

  • Improve your home’s street appeal

  • Increase property value

  • Prevent costly future repairs

  • Make your home more energy-efficient

It’s a smart investment—especially before selling or after years of wear.
