The work

Roof painting on the North Shore.

Roof paint has a hard job. It takes full sun and every storm. The prep under it decides how long it lasts.

The North Shore is the part of Auckland north of the harbour. Say where the house is, and what the roof is made of.

What is involved in a roof painting job?

A roof job usually starts with a wash and any repairs. Then the roof is primed and coated. A real price needs someone to see the roof first.

Can every roof be painted?

Most iron and concrete tile roofs can. A badly rusted roof may need repairs or new sheets first. Someone must see it to say.
