When looking for roof restoration, we provide a service second to none. We remove and replace all damaged roof tiles, we remove any loose pointing, re-bed ridge capping where necessary, scrape away any debris on ridge caps in preparation for re-point works, the ridge cappings are then re-pointed with flexible roof compound with the colour to best match the existing roof.
The roof is then power washed to remove moss and dirt from the roof tiles. The roof is then coated with a shield coat bonding agent, once dry a two coat system of roof bond water based acrylic paint is applied. A 10-year guarantee is given where all of the roof has been restored in this way.
Keeping your ridge capping in good condition is very important as this is one of the points on your roof that are susceptible to severe winds.
If ridge caps are cracked and loose the wind can lift them easily into the air and when they fall back to earth this is when they can damage roof tiles, pergola sheets skylights, solar panels and solar hot water systems.
The new type of roof compound used today can easily be applied to make your ridge cappings stick like super glue and give you peace of mind.

If the valleys become blocked by debris the rain water can easily be deflected directly into the loft area in large volumes.

We have many years experience removing old flashings and installing new flashings. During the hail storms of March 2010 many lead flashings were severely damaged and were replaced by Jim Russell Roofing Services. The lead flashings can also split due to the heat as they have no expansion — this then allows water penetration internally at these points which can be costly if not rectified quickly.
On colorbond metal roofs most leaks are caused by flashings installed incorrectly and where the seals have perished on soil pipes, air vents, TV antennas and air conditioner units. Jim Russell Roofing Services has many years experience in finding and fixing these problems.

Many roof leaks are caused due to non-maintanence of gutters and down pipes. It doesn't take much debris to block the mouth of downpipes and when this happens most gutters back flow into the eaves areas. Jim Russell Roofing Services can provide a service for cleaning gutters and down pipes, removal and renewal of gutters and downpipes and gutter guard installation.
