Tiled Roof Restorations

This masterpiece from Three Birds Renovations is the total transformation of a renovator’s delight into a contemporary family home, made complete with a Dulux Acratex Roofing System refresh.

This cottage in Sydney was dated and dark. The Three Birds knew that with the right finishes, a fresh colour palette and a completely restored roof, this home could be transformed into something special.

By using Dulux Acratex Roof Membrane, Three Birds Renovations transformed the home’s exterior with a light, bright new facade finished with a freshly restored and repainted roof. Cracked and loose roof tiles were repaired and the roof's original brown paint finish was replaced with Colorbond Surfmist, chosen to offset the home’s new creamy exterior and neutral detailing.

This roof restoration in Blackburn, Victoria, transformed an old cement tiled roof and completely refreshed the entire home.

The owners of this Edwardian weatherboard home were in the process of renovating, with exterior updates planned including a freshly painted facade and resurfaced driveway. The home’s faded and damaged old roof needed a total transformation to complement these additions and complete the renovation.

The existing roof had lichen and algae build-up and missing and damaged tiles. The Roofing Applicator replaced missing tiles and cleaned and removed all roof dirt and lichen. This roof was completely repaired, resealed and coated using Dulux Acratex exclusive roof membrane formulation and finished in Dulux Acratex Charcoal, a contrasting roof colour to perfectly coordinate with the home’s new bone weatherboard exterior.

This concrete tiled roof in Warrandyte, Victoria, had a large amount of lichen and algae growth. After engaging with a Roofing Applicator, the old tiles were pressure washed to thoroughly remove dirt, grime and lichen. Cracked or faulty tiles were repaired and any broken tiles replaced. As there were loose ridge capping and cracked mortar, the roofing applicator repointed the roof to provide watertight protection against the elements. Mould and fungus were treated with a sterilising formula to prevent future growth from occurring.

The roof was then primed and sealed to adhere the coating to the surface. Two coats of Dulux Acratex Roof Membrane Gloss were then applied in Colorbond Monument.

A roof restoration revitalised this metal roof in Warrandyte, Victoria to create a fresh, contemporary look and help protect against environmental factors.

The Colorbond roof was beginning to look tired and had developed leaks and damage from exposure to the elements. Following a thorough site inspection, a considerable amount of rust and debris was found to have built up on the roof’s surface. Roof screws were missing and metal sheets and valley irons were misplaced or broken.

The roof was restored with a high pressure clean and all rusted and damaged metal sheets were repaired or replaced. The entire roof’s surface was sterilised, primed and sealed with a formula specifically designed for metal roofs to help prevent further rust and keep the roof looking fresher for longer. The roof was then finished with two coats of the Dulux Acratex Roof Membrane in Colorbond Woodland Grey in a satin finish.
