You should never have to replace an entire roof simply because it is beginning to look aged or a little tatty. Thanks to proven skill and experience, roof restoration can rejuvenate a roof by repairing damages and enhancing appearance, thereby prolonging the roof’s lifespan by several decades. At Glasgow Roofmasters, we are experienced roof restoration experts who can restore an aging roof to a clean, safe, and attractive state while providing a reliable barrier of protection for your property for the decades to come.

Glasgow roof restoration is often a far more economical option when compared to a complete roof replacement, especially if the roof is still in reasonable condition and is suitable for repairs. Our restoration service effectively addresses many of the typical symptoms of ageing and the issues that can cause water ingress including worn roofing surfaces, cracked or broken roof tiles, unseated coverings, moss and algae, faded patches, porosity, joints, and many other issues that if left untreated can develop into more serious problems.

In our opinion, the top roof restoration service begins with an accurate assessment. That’s why we provide a free, obligation-free inspection prior to advising on any work. As part of this survey we’ll thoroughly inspect the roof (including tiles or other surface coverings, flashings, joints and surfaces, and anything which might appear to be porous, cracked, mossy or otherwise damaged) to gain a clear picture of exactly what your roof needs, rather than an incomplete view of what you think it needs.

At the end of the inspection we will tell you what issues we’ve discovered and whether we believe restoration is an appropriate route. If we think it is, we will prepare a written quotation that details how much the work is likely to cost, what work is involved and how long it may take. There’s no pressure to go ahead with the quotation. We want property owners to have clear guidance to make a sensible decision.

Our restoration process is a highly effective one. First we typically wash the roof with hot water and a high pressure washer. This eliminates moss, algae, dirt, grease and any other pollution that may be on the surface.

We then treat the surface with an algaecide which will help to inhibit the undesirable growth of organisms for a longer period of time.

Cleaning the surface is very important to prepare it for application of the next product.

Following cleaning and drying we perform the repairs which may be required. This may involve loose roof coverings or flashings, cracked tiles or surface damaged porous areas, penetrations, junctions and flashings. These areas are carefully examined so that any issues which might impact on the watertightness of the roof can be dealt with prior to the final coating of protective treatment being applied. Primer is then applied which helps prepare the surface for the application of the protective top coat.

The last protective coating can come in a variety of colours and finishes so that the renovated roof will match the rest of the property. This coating should allow the roof to look more uniform and helps it to be able to be resistant to water, to sunlight, to heat and cold, weather and pollution. It’s about not just looking better but performing better.

Depending on the type of roof, materials used and degree of damage or wear, a successfully completed restoration could extend the life of a roof by between 10 and 20 years. Certain roofing materials can be more suitable than others for restoration. Roof coverings such as tiles and shingles, felt membranes, asphalt, slate and others can all be restored but each has different repair requirements and different types of treatments that work best. We carry out restoration work on pitched and flat roofs and tailor our work to the roof rather than taking the same approach on every property.

Glasgow roof restoration this can also have value well beyond aesthetics. The new roof can prevent the entry of water through the roof that could damage the walls, internal finishes, rafters, insulation and other elements of the property. If the restoration work includes working on insulation or other appropriate measures then it could also improve the level of heat loss from the property. The appearance of the property can also be enhanced.

Safety is an important element of all of our restoration jobs. Because of the nature of roofing work, we conduct a risk assessment prior to undertaking any work. This takes into account the height and pitch of the roof, weather conditions, passenger and vehicle traffic, access limitations, slippery surfaces, unsecured tiles, and other site-specific risks.

Depending on the structure, this can involve the use of fall arrest harnesses, scaffolding, ladders, safety lines, and access platforms.

Our team is trained and experienced working safely at height, and we are insured.
