How much does a roof respray cost?

The cost of a roof respray depends on a number of factors, including the size of the roof, its condition, pitch, accessibility and the amount of preparation required.

Every property is different, so we provide individual quotes based on the roof and the work required rather than using a one-size-fits-all price.

Contact Roof Spruce with your property address and we'll assess the roof and prepare a quote.

What is the difference between roof restoration and roof respraying?

Roof restoration and roof respraying are often used to describe the process of bringing an existing roof back to life. At Roof Spruce, our restoration process involves thoroughly cleaning and preparing the existing roof before applying a professional coating system.

The aim is to transform the appearance of the roof while providing a durable protective finish.

How long does a roof respray last?

The lifespan of a roof coating can vary depending on the roof surface, preparation, environmental conditions and ongoing maintenance.

Our eligible roof coating systems are backed by a 14-year guarantee against colour fade and peel. The guarantee relates to the coating system and its specified conditions rather than guaranteeing the structural life of the roof itself.

Can you restore both tiled and metal roofs?

Yes. Roof Spruce works with both tiled and metal roofing surfaces.

The restoration process and preparation requirements can vary depending on the type and condition of the roof, which is why each property is assessed individually.

What does a roof restoration include?

Our roof restoration process includes thorough surface cleaning and preparation followed by the application of our coating system.

Our Globalcote 3 step system includes a high-pressure clean and rinse, the appropriate Elastacoat roof membrane primer and two coats of Elastacoat roof membrane colour sealer.

Minor rust spots and minor screw replacements can be addressed where required. Extensive or full screw replacement may incur an additional charge.

How long does a roof restoration take?

The time required depends on the size and condition of the roof, the preparation required and weather conditions.

We'll provide an estimated timeframe when preparing your quote.

Do you replace rusty roof screws?

Minor screw replacement and attention to rust spots can be included where required as part of a roof restoration.

If a roof requires extensive or complete replacement of its existing screws with new galvanised screws, an additional charge may apply depending on the amount of work required.

Do you offer roof cleaning without respraying?

Yes. Roof cleaning is available as a standalone service.

Professional roof cleaning can remove dirt, grime, moss, lichen and other surface build-up, helping refresh the appearance of the roof. Cleaning and preparation are also an important part of the restoration process when a roof is being resprayed.

Do you paint gutters and fascias?

Yes. Gutter and fascia painting can be included as part of your exterior property project where appropriate.

This can be a great way to complement a newly restored roof and give the exterior of your property a more complete, refreshed appearance.

How do I get a quote?

The easiest way to request a quote is through our website enquiry form.

Providing the property address allows us to review the location, assess access and use mapping tools to help measure the roof before preparing your quote.

If you have any questions about your roof or the work you're considering, you're also welcome to contact Roof Spruce directly.

What colours can I choose for my roof?

We offer a range of roof colours, including popular COLORBOND® colours, to help you choose a finish that suits your home and existing exterior.

If you have a particular colour in mind that isn't shown on our standard colour chart, we can also discuss colour-matching options to help achieve the look you're after.

Whether you're looking for a classic roofing colour or something to complement your home's exterior, we'll help you choose a finish that works for your property.
