Coloured roof coating
in Ixelles
A tired-looking roof gets an even colour back and a surface that sheds water, without going through a full replacement. We do this in Ixelles from our base in Walloon Brabant, always with a costing visit before you commit to anything.

The context in Ixelles
Why here in particular
Working in tight terraces demands precise logistics and strict respect for listed or protected facades. So we adapt the equipment and the method rather than running a standard protocol.
A 25-year-old concrete tile is not necessarily finished: it is faded and porous. Recoating it with a water-repellent product costs a fraction of a re-roof and adds about ten years to its life.

How it runs
How the job runs
The same protocol everywhere, adapted to what the visit reveals on site. Nothing is decided from the pavement.
- Documented porosity test
- Full moss removal first
- Replacing broken tiles (per unit)
- Bonding primer
- Two coats of coloured roof coating
- Protecting the facades and the surrounding area
Porosity diagnosis
An absorption test. If the tile is too far gone, we say no and price a renewal instead.
Full clean
Moss removal and rinsing. Paint over moss does not last six months.
Repairs
Broken tiles replaced, ridge tiles repointed.
Primer
Primer sealer on a porous substrate.
Two coats
Cross-pattern airless application, colour of your choice from the range.
Frequently asked questions
Coloured roof coating in Ixelles
The questions we get asked most often before this kind of job.
How long between the cleaning and the painting?
48 h of drying minimum, three days in damp weather.
Does the coating improve waterproofing?
It limits how much water the tile takes in. It does not replace a failed underlay.
Does it really hold up?
On a sound, properly prepared surface, 10 to 15 years. On a tile that is crumbling, no — and we turn the job down.
Do you come out to Ixelles with no extra call-out charge?
Yes. Ixelles is one of our 17 municipalities: the call-out is included in the quote, not added at the bottom of the invoice.

While we are on site
Combining two jobs in one visit brings the invoice down. We suggest it when it makes sense, never to pad the quote.
