Problem & approach

Where these projects go wrong, and how we handle them.

The usual problem

Faded tiles, chalky metal roofs and mismatched patches all look better with a fresh coat. But paint applied over dirt, moss or corrosion simply peels off inside a season, often taking the previous coating with it.

Our approach

We inspect the roof first, flag any tiles, sheets or fixings that need attention, then prepare and coat with a system suited to the substrate. We will tell you honestly if a roof needs repair or waterproofing before painting is the right next step.

Durbanville roof painting

Tile and metal roofs need different preparation before the first coat.

On tiled roofs we look at cracked or displaced tiles, ridge and hip details, biological growth and the condition of the existing coating. On IBR, corrugated and other metal roofs we look at corrosion, fasteners, overlaps, previous coating adhesion and exposed metal. Those findings decide the system. A colour choice comes afterwards.

What may be included

Scope you can actually read.

The exact line items on your quote depend on the site inspection. This is the shape of what a typical project of this type includes.

  • Roof inspection with photos of areas of concern
  • High-pressure cleaning and biocide treatment
  • Repair or replacement of individual damaged tiles where quoted
  • Rust treatment and priming on metal roofs where quoted
  • Full primer and two-coat system application
  • Ridge, valley and flashing detailing

Products we work with

The Systems Behind the Work.

  • Rubber Sealant® logo

    Approved applicator and authorised reseller of Rubber Sealant® Liquid Rubber.

  • Plascon logo

    Our preferred paint on most projects.

We are not a Plascon approved applicator. Plascon is simply the paint we choose to specify for its quality and track record, and we will recommend a different system where a project calls for it.

Honest limits

What we will tell you up front.

A proper contractor should be honest about what a service can and cannot do. These are the things we will always flag.

  • Widespread tile damage, severe corrosion, structural sag or drainage failures may require repair by an appropriate roofing trade first.
  • Solar panels may need to be temporarily removed and re-installed by an appropriate installer.
  • Roof painting is not a substitute for waterproofing on a leaking roof.
