01

Inspect the roof condition

Identify the material, damaged tiles, ridge caps, valleys, flashings, penetrations and signs of water entry before defining the scope.

  • Confirm cement or terracotta tiles
  • Record damaged areas and junctions
  • Separate local repairs from restoration work
02

Repair before cleaning and coating

Broken tiles, failed bedding, loose pointing and specified flashing faults should be addressed rather than hidden beneath a finish.

  • Replace damaged tiles where possible
  • Rebed failed ridge sections where required
  • Use flexible pointing on approved ridge areas
03

Clean and prepare the surface

Pressure cleaning removes moss, lichen, dirt and loose material. Nearby walls, drainage, gardens and neighbouring property should be protected.

  • Protect surrounding surfaces
  • Direct wash water responsibly
  • Allow suitable drying time
04

Apply the specified finish and check the result

Eligible cement tiles may receive a compatible primer followed by specified colour coats. Terracotta requires a different treatment. Final checks cover repairs, finish consistency and clean-up.

  • Confirm products and coat numbers
  • Check warranty and exclusions
  • Keep completion photographs
