A residential property in Aspendale required a specialised roof restoration solution to combat severe fading, uneven weathering, and substrate damage due to its unique coastal location. The bespoke shape and rare roof profile, combined with tight access constraints, presented a complex challenge. Melbourne Protective Coatings carefully assessed the situation and implemented a tailored residential painting solution using a marine-grade, heat reflective membrane to effectively address these coastal-specific issues.
Located close to Aspendale’s coastline, the project faced high winds, sudden weather changes, and overspray concerns, making safety and precision paramount. The roof’s unusual shape and rare profile demanded meticulous planning and specialty equipment to ensure complete coverage and an even, durable finish.
Initial cleaning using high-pressure washers to thoroughly remove debris, contaminants, and unstable coatings.
Application of SolaCoat white primer to enhance adhesion and reflectivity.
Two coats of marine-grade SolaCoat Roofing Membrane in a visually appealing Mountain Blue, specifically chosen for its resilience and aesthetic value.
Installation of scaffolding ensured safe and efficient access around the challenging roof structure.
Melbourne Protective Coatings utilised SolaCoat Roofing Membrane, a high-quality heat reflective and waterproofing membrane, ideal for harsh coastal environments. This product not only restores roof appearance but also significantly reduces heat absorption, enhancing internal comfort and energy efficiency.
Solacoat Waterproof Heat Abating Roof Membrane is a flexible acrylic elastomeric, high – build membrane-type coating suitable for masonry, brick & concrete walls, metal & concrete roofs. The high solar reflectivity, excellent UV weathering, together with the advanced formulation allows sharing of the heating/cooling burden that leads to reduced temperatures in roof & wall cavities reducing heat loadings on building interiors.
Solacoat Waterproof Roof Membrane contains no heavy metals or other toxic ingredients and so is suitable for use where collection of water for drinking or tank storage is contemplated.
The finished project in Aspendale exceeded expectations, delivering both aesthetic appeal and robust protection against harsh coastal conditions. The Mountain Blue finish beautifully complements the property, providing long-term resilience and significantly improving thermal efficiency.
