Why Choose Us for Glaze Coat Application in Hillarys?
A glaze coat seals your roof and locks out the salt and humidity that Hillarys throws at it every day. If your tile or metal roof is in decent shape but showing salt staining or early moss spots, a quality glaze saves you from a full restoration bill. It's a thinner option than a full two-coat membrane, but it extends the life of your tiles or metal by another 5 to 8 years when done right. We apply the glaze after thorough cleaning to remove salt deposits and organic growth, so the sealant actually bonds to the roof. It handles the 65-72% coastal humidity better than standard paint does, and it keeps that chalky white salt residue from building up as fast. The job's usually quicker than a full restoration, and the cost reflects that.
A glaze coat seals porous tile surfaces and slows moss regrowth on Hillarys' humid south-facing roof sections. We apply it after cleaning to lock in protection. Ceramic glaze resists salt better than bare terracotta and gives 5-7 years of cleaner roof appearance before organic growth accelerates again. Best done every 2-3 years on high-humidity Hillarys roofs.

Benefits of Glaze Coat Application for Hillarys Properties
Keeps the natural terracotta look
A glaze is a clear or lightly tinted seal that revives the fired terracotta colour and sheen. It refreshes the roof without burying it under the opaque paint that hides what terracotta actually is.
UV-stabilised seal for the Perth sun
TerraGlaze is built to take the UV that fades and dries out bare terracotta, and it seals the porous tile surface so it sheds water and grime instead of soaking it up.
The terracotta alternative to painting
For terracotta that's faded but structurally sound, glazing brings it back without committing you to a painted colour, or to the repainting that painted terracotta eventually needs.
Prepped and applied properly
The roof is cleaned, any cracked or chipped tiles are repaired, then the glaze goes on evenly across the surface. The application carries our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Our Glaze Coat Application Process in Hillarys
- 1
Check the tiles are suitable
We inspect the terracotta to confirm it's sound enough to glaze, and flag anything that needs repair first.
Why it matters: Glazing is for tiles that are weathered, not broken.
- 2
Clean the roof back
The tiles are cleaned to strip dirt, moss and surface growth so the glaze meets bare terracotta.
Why it matters: A glaze only bonds to a clean tile surface.
- 3
Repair cracked and chipped tiles
Damaged tiles are repaired or replaced before any glaze is applied.
Why it matters: A glaze seals the surface, it doesn't hold a broken tile together.
- 4
Apply the glaze and let it cure
TerraGlaze is applied evenly across the roof and left to cure to the product spec, then the finished coat is checked for full, even coverage.
Why it matters: Even coverage and a proper cure are what make the seal last.

Will a glaze coat stop moss completely on my Hillarys roof? ▾
No. It slows regrowth by 2-3 years on south-facing tiles, but humidity runs 65-72% year-round here. A glaze coat buys you time between cleanings. Combine it with biocide treatment for best results. You'll still need cleaning every 2-3 years rather than annually.
How long does glaze coat last in Hillarys' salt air? ▾
About 5-7 years before salt and UV break it down. It's cheaper than repainting ($1,200-1,800 vs $4,000+) and easier to reapply. For harbour-adjacent homes within 1km, expect 4-5 years. Inland Whitfords properties get the full 6-7.
What's the difference between glazing and painting a roof? ▾
A glaze is a clear or lightly tinted seal that keeps the natural terracotta look and protects the tile. Paint is an opaque coat that changes the colour and covers the terracotta entirely. If you want to keep your roof looking like terracotta, glazing is the option; if you want a different colour, that's roof painting.
Should I glaze or paint my terracotta roof? ▾
If the tiles are sound and you like the terracotta look but it's faded, glazing refreshes and seals it without changing the character of the roof. Painting makes sense when you want a different colour. We'll look at your roof and tell you honestly which suits it.
How long does a glaze coat last? ▾
Typically around 5 to 10 years in Perth conditions, depending on the roof's exposure and how it's looked after. It's a maintenance coating, so it refreshes the surface rather than re-roofing it.
Is the glaze coating covered by the 15-year Dulux warranty? ▾
No. The 15-year Dulux warranty applies to the Dulux Acratex membrane system used on a full roof restoration, not to a glaze coat, which is a different product. The glaze application carries our 12-month workmanship guarantee, and we'll set out exactly what's covered before you go ahead.
Will glazing fix a leaking roof? ▾
No. A glaze seals and protects the tile surface, it doesn't stop a leak. Leaks come from cracked tiles, failed pointing or flashing, and they need repairing first. We'll sort any of that before glazing.
Can the glaze be tinted? ▾
It can be left clear to keep the existing colour, or lightly tinted to even out and lift a faded roof. We'll talk through the finish based on what your terracotta looks like now.
What Our Customers Say
"The overall experience dealing with the Roof Restorers was excellent. Ryan was very flexible in coordinating the job and dealing with the unreliable weather. Jack was very professional and explained every step of the project and kept us informed on the progress. He was always on time and was articulate in cleaning the roof, repairing areas, including the ridge caps and then restoring the paintwork. We are happy with the final result. I'm very confident in recommending this company. 👍👍👍👍👍"
"These guys helped me out through a stressful time with a rejected insurance claim and got my roof fixed and looking brand new! They had great communication which made me feel better about the situation and the roof looks so much better. Definitely recommend them for a roof restoration. Thanks again!"
