Why Choose Us for Roof Restoration in Thornlie?
A proper roof restoration in Thornlie is comprehensive, it includes high-pressure cleaning removing decades of moss and canopy grime, industrial-strength biocide treatment, complete repointing with flexible compound, replacement of cracked tiles (typically up to 50), ridge and hip cap re-bedding, final protective coating with a 15-year warranty, and original valley iron replacement. It addresses all the aging patterns that hit Thornlie's 1970s-1980s housing stock simultaneously. Most single-storey tile roofs cost $8,500 to $11,500, with two-storey homes typically running $11,500 to $16,000. The coating is backed by a 15-year manufacturer warranty on materials. Restoration is common in Thornlie because the housing stock is so uniformly aged, nearly every street contains homes at the same restoration point, making it economical to tackle comprehensively rather than patch piecemeal.
Full roof restoration in Thornlie means cleaning, repointing, replacing failed tiles, rebedding caps, replacing valleys, and applying a protective coating all built to bring 40 to 50 year old roofs back to full function for another 10 to 15 years. The work is methodical and takes several days depending on size. You'll see the difference immediately clean tiles, tight joinery, no loose sections, and a sealed, weatherproof surface. Because Thornlie homes were mostly built at the same time, restoration is reliable.

Roof Restoration in Thornlie - FAQs
Do you provide roof restoration in Thornlie? ▾
Yes. Roof Restorers Perth provides roof restoration across Thornlie and nearby Sorrento, Applecross, Port Kennedy.

Call 6388 4492 for a free, no-obligation quote.
How long does a full roof restoration take? ▾
For a single-storey Thornlie home, usually 5 to 7 working days weather depending. Two-storey takes longer. We schedule around weather. Once finished you're done for 10 to 15 years typically, maybe some touch-ups after that.
Do I need to move out during restoration? ▾
No. It's messy, pressure spray, scaffold, tools, dust, but we work outside. You can live in the house. Just keep windows closed during high-pressure cleaning to avoid spray getting inside.
What roofs qualify for restoration? ▾
Tiled and metal roofs that are structurally sound but showing age (15-25 years old). We perform remote assessments to assess restoration viability. If your roof has extensive structural damage, we'll recommend [roof replacement](/services/roof-replacement/) instead.
How does restoration compare to replacement cost? ▾
Roof restoration costs $8,000-12,000 for typical homes vs $25,000-35,000 for complete replacement. Restoration saves 60-70% while extending roof life by 15+ years. Only structurally compromised roofs require replacement.
How long does roof restoration take? ▾
2-3 days for standard single-storey homes, 3-5 days for two-storey or complex roofs. Weather delays can extend timelines during Perth's winter months. We schedule around rain forecasts.
Does restoration work on flat commercial roofs? ▾
Our process is designed for pitched tiled and metal roofs. Flat roofs require specialized membrane systems - see our [commercial roofing](/services/commercial-roofing/) services for flat roof solutions.
What products do you use? ▾
We exclusively use Dulux Acratex roofing membrane and primer systems. As Dulux Acratex Accredited Applicators, we're approved to offer the 15-year Dulux manufacturer warranty on eligible coatings. We never use inferior products that void warranty coverage.
What if major damage is discovered during work? ▾
If we discover structural issues during restoration, we stop work and discuss options. Common solutions include targeted [roof repairs](/services/roof-repair/), partial replacement, or full replacement. We never proceed without your approval and revised quote.
Does restoration include gutter cleaning? ▾
No — gutter work isn't part of a roof restoration. [Gutter cleaning](/services/gutter-cleaning/) and [gutter replacement](/services/gutter-replacement/) are separate services we quote on their own. We do recommend having your gutters cleared before a restoration for the best result, and we're happy to quote it alongside the roof.
Can I choose my roof colour? ▾
Yes! Dulux Acratex comes in 20+ colours from classic terracotta to modern charcoal. Our [roof painting](/services/roof-painting/) service page shows popular Perth colour choices. We provide colour samples before starting.
What Our Customers Say
"I wanted to give 6 stars. Highly recommend Ryan and the team for roof restoration. From the beginning, communication was clear and they delivered exactly what they said they would — something that really stood out after being ghosted by other companies. The pricing was very honest compared to the many quotes we received for the same work, and the quality delivered was excellent. Ryan also gave us valuable time and guidance when choosing colours, which we really appreciated. Not once did I have to wait for a response, the site was left clean, and the entire process felt smooth and professional from start to finish. Ryan is an absolute gem ~ reliable, knowledgeable, and genuinely great to deal with. Honestly, I cannot fault anything. Very grateful we trusted Ryan and his team with restoring our late-70s roof. Thank you!!"
