Tiled Roof Restoration in Thornlands


The suburb of Thornlands lies about 30 kilometres east-south-east of Brisbane and is home to many properties which have or are currently undergoing some TLC.


One of those was a brick home with a concrete tile roof. Our qualified technicians carried out a full restoration of this roof and replaced two old (2) whirlybirds with new ones.


As this home’s roof was a made from concrete tile, as part of the restoration we re-bedded ridge capping where needed and repointed all ridge capping.


Following that we coated the surface with a sterilising solution, a primer and a two coats of durable roof membrane Elastacote High Gloss by Globalcote, in the colour Merino.


This particular roof had been painted about 13 years ago, before the current owners bought the property, so it was overdue for a revival. And they were very pleased with the outcome and the process of working with our team.


Read what they had to say below:

"Thank you to everyone from JMZ involved in our project. As the state manager for a national service company can I say that everyone from the admin team to each of the guys from the cleaning and painting crews have been fantastic to deal with. We could not have asked for more. Please pass on our thanks to the team,“

Choosing a roof colour isn’t just about what looks good. In Ipswich, it can also impact how hot your home gets, how long the coating lasts, and how well your roof handles storm season. So how do you pick the right colour — one that’s both beautiful and practical? Understanding Ipswich’s Climate and Its Impact on Colour Ipswich homes face a mix of harsh elements: Intense sunlight and UV radiation High summer heat - Seasonal storms and heavy rain Airborne dust and debris Dark roofs tend to absorb more heat, which can raise internal temperatures. They also fade faster under UV exposure. Lighter roofs reflect more sunlight, keeping your home cooler and helping the coating last longer. Popular Roof Colours in Ipswich Globalcote colour options for Ipswich homeowners: Surfmist: Bright, clean, and one of the highest for heat reflection Shale Grey: Modern and versatile with good solar performance Evening Haze: Soft and neutral with broad street appeal Dune: An earthy tone that blends well with older and newer homes Windspray: Subtle and stylish, suitable for various house styles All these colours are available in Globalcote’s Infracote (heat reflective) and Elastacote (flexible membrane) roof coating systems. Quick Answer: What Roof Colours Work Best in Ipswich? Lighter, UV-stable colours like Surfmist, Shale Grey, and Dune work best in Ipswich.
