How Much Does Roof Restoration and Repair Cost?

Look outside and you will more than likely see terracotta, cement, or metal roofing on nearby properties. Over time, each of these materials will require upkeep and repairs due to natural wear and tear and weather events. While a completely new roof installation is a significant expense, restoring or repairing a roof is a more cost-effective alternative. At Roof Rangers, we aim to have an open discussion with you regarding the cost of roofing materials, labour, and all other costs involved before we get working.

What Is Roof Restoration?

Unavoidably, every roof will ultimately show its age. The purpose of roof restoration is to extend the life of your roof by going through the process of replacing broken tiles, conducting a deep clean, re-bedding ridge caps, and applying fresh paint. Now let’s talk about factors that affect the overall cost of roof restoration in this blog.

Factors That Influence The Cost Of Roof Restoration

Roofing material

At Roof Ranger, the most common roofing we repair and restore are those of terracotta, cement, and metal material. Metal roof restoration jobs use a different process to terracotta and cement roofs. For instance, worn down metal roofs may need to be resealed and repainted to address aesthetic concerns and to stop further damage or leaks. Whereas terracotta or cement tile roof restorations consist of re-bedding ridge caps and replacing broken tiles where necessary.

Severity of damage

Once the severity of damage and wear has been concluded, the team at Roof Ranger can then determine the best possible method for restoration. Is there visible mould or de-lamination present? Do tiles need to be replaced – if so, how many? These are the types of questions asked when figuring out the repairs needed, which all impact the costs involved with a restoration job.

Cost of materials

Another factor that influences the cost of roof restoration is the type of tiles that need repairing. In general, cement tiles are the least expensive tiles, followed by terracotta and slate, but this can vary depending on the damage present and how many tiles need to be repaired.

Additional repairs

At times, extensive repairs are required to restore the look and functionality of your roof. This may require a bigger budget due to the extra labour and materials needed. Roof replacement jobs also influence the cost of roof restoration services.

Why can’t I restore my roof myself?

Roof restoration requires a roofing professional’s expertise and skills to complete the work to a high standard. This is particularly important since the roof is the only thing separating you and the outside elements! A roofing professional:

• Has the right equipment to effectively clean your roof
• Will do the job safely
• Uses high-quality, appropriate materials
• Offers value for money
