Give your roof a new lease on life, without the new roof price tag

If your roof is doing its job structurally but looking a bit past its best (faded paint, a chalky surface, patches where the finish has worn thin), a full replacement isn't always the answer. That's the thinking behind Roof-Revive™, Edwards & Hardy's roof restoration and recoating service, now available to homeowners in Auckland, Hamilton, and Christchurch.

Roof-Revive™ is built around our RoofGuard™ coating system, and it's suited to most painted metal roofs: longrun roofing, painted metal tiles, and other steel roofs with faded, weathered or chalking paint, provided the roof itself is structurally sound and doesn't actually need replacing. It's a genuinely different option to a re-roof, and one that can cost up to 70% less.

How it works

Every job follows the same four steps. First, a RoofGuard™ treatment deals with moss, mould and lichen (including the spores) to prepare the surface. Next, we pressure wash the roof to remove all the treated organic material. Then we apply a premium RoofGuard™ primer to help the coating bond and last. Finally, two coats of RoofGuard™ TopCoat go on for maximum protection and a genuinely fresh finish.

RoofGuard™ is available in a small range of popular colours, and we are upfront that recoating isn't right for every roof. If your roof needs repairs before it's coated, we'll quote that separately, and the coating work won't start until any repairs are approved and done. It's about doing right by the roof, not just selling a coating.

Why homeowners are choosing it

Cost is the obvious one (up to 70% less than replacing), but it's not the only reason. A quality coating protects against ongoing weather damage, brings a faded or tired-looking roof back to life, and extends how long the roof itself lasts. For a lot of homes, it's a practical middle ground between "do nothing" and "replacing the roof."

Is your roof a good fit?

Roof-Revive™ suits homes with structurally sound painted steel roofs that don't need replacing. If that sounds like yours and you're in the Auckland, Hamilton or Christchurch areas, the first step is a free, no-obligation roof assessment.
