Roof Sealer
Roof tiles are generally non-porous at the point they are installed on a roof. However, over time, the roof tiles can become very porous. Frost damage can also result on broken or cracked roof tiles. This can result in a costly roof repair being required as repairing a leaking roof will almost certainly need an expert roofer to resolve the issue.
Most roof repair issues can be avoided by the application of a high quality impregnating roof sealer. This can be highly beneficial to ageing and old porous roof tiles and provide lasting protection from damage by frost and general wear and tear. Generally most roof tiles in excess of 25 years old have lost the majority of the protective surface layer which provides its weather and moisture resistant qualities. This leaves the roof vulnerable to natural contaminants and pollutants establishing themselves. Without changing the appearance of the tile, the clear roof sealer will soak into the porous voids of the tile, re-establishing its water resistant and protective properties.
Application of this type of roof sealing product is simple by a competent DIY person or contractor, without specialist equipment. The clear roof sealer will protect the surface of the roof tile without altering its appearance.
Although repairing a leaking roof is problematic and costly for many homeowners, its not as expensive as having a whole roof replaced. Moreover, a coloured roof coating can be applied that can transform the look of old roof tiles, making an old roof look like new. This can add thousands of pounds to the 'kerb appeal' of a property making the cost of doing it very worthwhile.
