Re-bedding & re-pointing tiles, re-screwing iron, rust treatments and fast leak detection & repair before small problems get big.

Regular roof maintenance means inspecting, cleaning and repairing your roof before small problems turn into leaks or major damage. Catching issues early costs far less than fixing them later, keeps your roof watertight and adds years to its life, so you put off the cost of a restoration or re-roof.

White Roofing offers a range of maintenance services tailored to your roof’s specific needs, ensuring it remains in top condition year-round. Our services include:
Remove dirt, moss, and lichen with eco-friendly cleaning methods that protect your roof’s materials and appearance.
Safely treat moss and lichen to prevent moisture buildup and protect your roof from further deterioration.
Fix leaks, broken tiles, flashings, rust, and early signs of wear before they become costly problems.
Clear and maintain gutters and downpipes to ensure proper drainage and help prevent leaks and water damage.

Small issues; a loose screw, a cracked tile, a blocked gutter, are cost-effective to fix and expensive to ignore. Routine maintenance keeps your roof watertight for the long term.
Add years to your roof’s life
Sun, wind, rain and salt from coastal air slowly wear every roof down. Regular cleaning, inspections and repairs slow that wear, so your roof lasts longer before it needs restoring or replacing.
Stop moss and lichen damage
Moss and lichen thrive in Auckland’s humid climate and hold moisture against your roof. We clean them off and treat the roof to protect it from further deterioration.
Keep water flowing where it should
Blocked or damaged gutters and downpipes let water pool and back up under your roof. We clear and check your whole drainage system to protect your roof and your foundations.
Protect your insurance cover
Most home insurance policies don’t cover damage caused by gradual deterioration or a lack of maintenance. A regular maintenance record helps show your roof has been properly looked after.
Keep your home looking its best
A clean, well-kept roof lifts the look of your whole property and helps protect its value when it’s time to sell.
Maintenance, restoration or re-roof?
Maintenance suits iron, concrete tile and decramastic roofs that are still in good condition with a few problem spots. If the coating is worn or faded across the whole roof, a restoration is usually the better option. If the roof itself is failing, it’s time for a re-roof. We’ll inspect it and tell you which one you need.
Most roof restorations on an average home take 3–7 working days. The time depends on the roof’s size and material, how much repair work is needed, and the weather, since coatings can’t go onto a wet roof or be applied in rain. Your roof stays on the whole time, so unlike a re-roof you can carry on living at home as normal.
A roof restoration for an average New Zealand home typically costs $4000-$7000. The price depends on the roof’s size, pitch, material and condition, and how much repair is needed before coating. That’s a fraction of the cost of replacing the roof: re-roofing a standard Auckland home costs around $14,000 -$32,000 in long-run steel, and $22,000 - $45,000 or more for concrete or clay tile conversion.

Roof restoration is worth it if your roof is structurally sound but worn, faded or starting to rust. It costs far less than a re-roof and can add 10 or more years of life. Replacement is the better investment when the roof has reached the end of its life. Signs include iron that has rusted through, tiles breaking down across the whole roof, or ongoing leaks from failed materials. A proper inspection will tell you which one you need.
A quality roof restoration typically lasts 10 years or more, depending on the coating system, the preparation and how exposed your home is. Resene puts the average repaint interval for New Zealand roofs at 8–10 years for standard roof paint, while multi-coat membrane systems are built to last longer. White Roofing uses Shieldcoat membrane systems, which carry 10+ year performance guarantees.
