Restoration Risk Profile
Macleod Roofing & Weather Profile
What We See in Macleod
Heritage homes in Melbourne's inner and middle ring suburbs often have original glazed or unglazed terracotta that has simply been neglected — not structurally failed. Cleaning and sealing those tiles transforms the property without compromising its period character.
Why It Happens
Biological growth holds moisture against the tile surface, which is the primary driver of accelerated weathering. Removing it and sealing the surface breaks the moisture-retention cycle — the roof dries faster after rain and the re-colonisation interval extends significantly.
How We Fix It
We apply a penetrating sealer rather than a surface-film coating on terracotta. The penetrating product bonds with the tile body rather than bridging the surface — it won't blister or peel as the tile breathes through seasonal moisture cycles.
