Does your home boast a classic pitched tile roof? While known for their elegance and durability, these beauties aren’t invincible. Time and weather can take their toll, leaving you with faded, cracked, and potentially leaking tiles.
But before you resign yourself to a costly roof replacement, consider restoration! It’s a cost-effective and sustainable way to extend the lifespan of your pitched tile roof and restore its former glory.
Why Restore Pitched Roof?
Tiles would normally last for 30 years and beyond. As the roof ages, the protective coating wears off due to wear and tear. When this happens, the quality of the roof tile deteriorates and the roof tile becomes brittle if left untreated. The roof tile will then be prone to cracks resulting in roof leakages. Thus it would be prudent to carry out Restoration Works to the old roof before this happens to avoid costly re-roofing costs.
Investing in restoration offers a multitude of benefits:
Save Money: Restoration costs significantly less than complete roof replacement.
Increased Longevity: A well-restored roof can last another 20-30 years, adding immense value to your property.
Enhanced Curb Appeal: A vibrant, revitalized roof dramatically improves your home’s aesthetics.
Improved Energy Efficiency: Properly sealed and coated tiles enhance thermal insulation, potentially reducing energy bills.
Environmentally Friendly: Restoration minimizes waste and conserves resources compared to full replacement.

Having roof leaking problem. Contacted Marc and with his Supervisor Mohammad came onsite to gives their professional advice… More as to what they will do. The roof specialist Pte Ltd gave a reasonable price quotation. Another Supervisor Farid and their team did a very good job. They also did the back wall waterproofing and painting. Workmanship is excellent. Very satisfied with the works done. Highly recommended to look for The Roof Specialist Pte Ltd. Adrian.
I'd highly recommend The Roofing Specialist for anyone needing their roofs done! - There was a major storm that damaged… More the polycarbonate roofing in my airwell and rain started gushing into my home. I immediately started sourcing for roofers and sent out many quotations.
Within 2 hours, Marc was at my home, quoted a fair price compared to 5 other contractors and scaffolding was up quickly within hours while the rains continued. His team sealed the roof to keep the on going rain out and took time to source the right polycarbonate panels that I needed. The installation done on the new roof looked very professional and clean. Very happy about that as well as have peace of mind with the warranty they gave.
Besides that, he also helped to write an assessment report for my insurance and was very communicative, offering sound advice as well as a solid team. Very glad I went with him. Overall I'd definitely use The Roofing Specialist again for my roofing needs! Highly recommended!
I am so thankful to find The Roof Specialist (TRS) through Google maps like some of the Google reviewers. For my case, I… More had suspected the previous contractor did a shoddy work as that contractor came a few times during the 3-year warranty period to perfunctorily fix my leaky roof around the skylight area e.g. by sending 1 worker up to my roof to seal the skylight panel for like 1 hour. However, root cause of the leak was not addressed so our ceiling around the skylight cracked and worsened during the 3 year warranty period. After the warranty period ended, we decided to look for another roof contractor.
During the March 2025 monsoon season, my husband and I decided to ask TRS to come for onsite inspection and propose a solution for our leaky roof. Marc, Ovid and another worker came. Ovid is a very experienced senior roofer / supervisor. The team proposed to change the skylight panel and re-do water proofing. TRS team is, of the view, that my metal roof panels are still ok and do not need to be changed. After talking to TRS team, we take comfort that they are experts in this field and have proposed a possible good solution so we did not ask for any other quotes. Subsequently, Marc provided a very reasonable quote and we decided to engage them. Marc provided the date of the roof work after 50% payment.
The roof works started on 7 April and the assignment was originally scheduled to take up to 1 week but the works were completed within 3 days as they brought in 1 more worker on the last day. They recommended changing to a sturdier and better quality sky light panel. They did water proofing works and also repair my interior ceiling on the third floor, and my car porch ceiling and side wall. Now my ceilings and wall look as good as new. The previous roof contractor did not even bother to repair my third floor ceiling.
I am very pleased with the work delivered by TRS. TRS team also confirmed my suspicion of shoddy work done previously.
If you need any roof repair works, look no further - just reach out to The Roof Specialist team. The team is meticulous and provides regular updates and honest recommendations on the works to be done based on their expert knowledge. Ovid and his team are punctual, polite and professional. They even washed my car porch after repairing my car porch ceiling and wall.
Thank you TRS team for your quality work and service. 👍🏻👍🏻
Best in class, solid team.
Though Marc visited the site frequently, the team is very independent, very experiences and willing… More to share their views.
A job well executed, definitely will recommend to others though hope I don't need his service again haha. Happy that no more waterfall in my room.
Adding some before and after photos.
Engaged The Roofing Specialist to repair my RC flat roof, install new metal roof, apply waterproofing and painting. Excellent… More job done by Marc and his team, with special compliment to Supervior Ohid. The working team is experienced, skillfull and organised. All job done was very thorough and complete with good workmanship. They would take care of every little details, explained and advised on how they rectify leaking and other problems. Very pleased with the overall work done and would highly recommend The Roofing Specialist for their roofing services.
Marc managed to revamp my 40 year old roof within 10 days. He has a group of very polite workmen who are very responsible.… More His company provided a very comprehensive and detailed quotation upon first meeting. Overall I was very impressed by his services and attitude . Thank you Marc and your wonderful team !
We found the Roofing Specialist via Google search as we were faced with a leaking ceiling on the upper floor after the recent… More downpours. Marc and his team were fast to respond and very knowledgeable of their craft, identifying the issue easily after a quick survey of the roof.
Their fares were transparent and fair and Marc wasn’t pushy with throwing in any extra works. After seeing how well the job was done we decided to enlist their aid for the remaining sections of the roof for good measure. The team was thorough and even accommodated some of our ad hoc requests along the way. Very satisfied with the final result.
We are very impressed by the workers who came to fix our roof which has problems like wear and tear, resulting in water leakage.… More Just like what the reviews said, the workers were professional and safely measures were in place. They were polite and were punctual everyday, responsible, skilful and diligent in their work. Marc is also quick to reply to my queries and the whole team works together well to deliver the service. Price is also very very reasonable. Will definitely recommend this company to friends who need such repair work for their homes.
