Why Choose Us for Glaze Coat Application in Maylands?
The glaze coat is the final protection layer. After cleaning and repointing your Maylands roof, we apply a two-coat sealant, either clear to show the terracotta colour or tinted, that sits on the tile surface and keeps water running off instead of soaking in. This is where Dulux Acratex goes on, and it's what gives you the 15-year warranty. Heritage homes benefit particularly well from the clear coat because you see the original tile texture and patina underneath. On concrete tiles and metal roofs, the sealant stops algae growth and pulls moisture away from the surface. This finish hardens the roof against Maylands' river humidity and makes the next cleaning easier when the time comes.
Maylands' heritage terracotta tiles are mostly 70-100 years old and their original glaze has dulled over decades of weather exposure. A clear or tinted Dulux Acratex coating enhances the natural terracotta colour, deepens it slightly, and adds a protective seal. This approach preserves the character look while adding 15 years of water protection without the plastic appearance of heavy paint systems.

Benefits of Glaze Coat Application for Maylands 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 Maylands
- 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 change the colour of my old red terracotta tiles? ▾
A clear coat protects without darkening. A tinted glaze can deepen the terracotta warmth slightly, enhancing how the tiles catch light. We show samples before application. Either way, the effect looks natural, not painted. Most Maylands homeowners prefer the subtle enhancement.
How long does a glaze coat actually last on these old tiles? ▾
15 years with the Dulux Acratex system we use. Riverside humidity and moss growth will still happen, but slower. It's one layer of the full restoration. Gutter cleaning and moss treatment between full restorations keep it performing longer.
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.
