Roof Restoration · Wandong
Wandong's older township homes near Sunday Creek carry concrete tile that's had decades to chalk off its factory colour coat and go porous, while newer rural-residential properties further out are more often Colorbond. Restoration on tile roofs cleans the surface back, replaces any cracked tiles, re-beds and re-points the ridge lines, and reseals with a membrane colour system. On Colorbond, restoration means recoating the sheeting and resealing penetrations and laps rather than tile repair. Being on the regional run north of Wallan, we plan a Wandong restoration as a full day on site.
Wandong is one of the further towns we service, so a restoration here is planned as a full day on site rather than a quick suburban job — but it's exactly the kind of job worth the longer drive.
Local roof weather
Melbourne's strong UV and roughly ~105 rain days a year steadily break down old tile coatings, which is why faded, porous roofs are so common across Wandong.
Climate normals (2015–2024) from Open-Meteo ERA5 reanalysis — gridded reanalysis, so rainfall is an estimate that runs a little high versus long-term gauge averages. Live UV from ARPANSA, live conditions from Open-Meteo.
The process
We get on the roof, photograph the real condition — tiles, ridges, valleys, flashings — and give you a clear scope before any work starts.
A controlled wash removes moss, lichen and the chalked-off old coating so the new system bonds to a sound surface.
Broken tiles are replaced, then the ridge caps are re-bedded and re-pointed with a flexible pointing compound that moves with the roof instead of cracking.
A penetrating primer stabilises porous tiles, followed by protective membrane coats that reseal the surface and restore the colour.
We clear the gutters of wash debris, do a final inspection, and leave the property tidy with your warranty paperwork.
Terracotta tiles are usually structurally sound and take a clear or coloured glaze after re-pointing, while concrete tiles lose their factory colour coat and take a full membrane colour system. We confirm the right approach for your roof at the inspection — we do not restore roofs that genuinely need replacing.
Every restoration is backed by a 7-Year Workmanship Guarantee and a 10-Year Dulux Acratex Material Warranty, and our team is fully licensed and insured.

Here's the part most people don't realise.
Even a brand new roof still fades. Your house still moves. Maintenance will come around again in roughly the same timeframe regardless, often 8–12 years later. A replacement doesn't buy you out of that cycle, it just costs a lot more to enter it. A good contractor doing a full replacement will do great work, but you could easily spend $40,000–$50,000 and still be booking a re-coat a decade later. Restoration gets you the same outcome for a fraction of the price. Same look, same protection, same warranties. The numbers just make more sense.
No obligation. We'll tell you honestly whether restoration is right for your roof.
