Roof Restoration Cost
Roof restoration (cleaning, repairs and re-coating) is often priced per square metre, and the rate falls as the roof gets larger. A cited guide lists roughly A$28–38/m² for small roofs, A$22–28/m² for medium and A$17–22/m² for larger roofs. This is restoration, not a full roof replacement.
