When you hear “roof restoration,” you might think it’s just a quick paint job. But for Ipswich homes, it’s a detailed process designed to extend the life of your roof by up to a decade or more.

So what actually happens?

Here’s what to expect when you work with JMZ.

Step 1: Roof Quotation and Honest Assessment

Your restoration starts with a free, no-obligation roof quotation. JMZ looks for:

• Broken or cracked tiles
• Loose ridge capping or missing pointing
• Rust on metal sheets or screws
• Faded or flaking coatings

They’ll explain exactly what needs attention — and what doesn’t.

Step 2: Deep Pressure Cleaning

Using high-pressure water systems, JMZ removes:

• Dirt, moss, lichen, and old paint
• Grime buildup that interferes with coating adhesion

This step is key to ensuring the new membrane bonds properly.

Step 3: Minor Repairs and Preparation

JMZ repairs all visible issues: 

• Replacing broken tiles
• Re-bedding and re-pointing ridge capping
• Replacing rusty screws and sealing penetrations

They use techniques that stand up to Ipswich’s harsh summer storms.

Step 4: Application of Primer

Primecote primer is applied to stabilise the surface and promote topcoat adhesion. It forms the critical bond between the roof and the protective coating.

Step 5: Protective Coating System

Two coats of Globalcote membrane are applied:

• Infracote: A heat-reflective option to reduce surface temps
• Elastacote: A flexible, impact-resistant membrane

These coatings are UV-stable, water-based, and engineered for Queensland conditions.
