  <p>We make roof restoration simple, safe, and effective through our proven 4 step system, designed to solve common roof problems and future proof your property. Here’s how:</p>

  <h4>1. Clean</h4>
  <p>We begin with a thorough chemical treatment to eliminate moss, mould, and lichen , common causes of long term roof deterioration. Then, we apply high pressure waterblasting to clear all residue, restoring a clean surface and ensuring optimal adhesion for the coating layers.</p>

  <h4>2. Prep</h4>
  <p>Next, we repair all issues: rust is treated with a rust converter, broken tiles are patched or replaced, and all penetrations (vents, joins, flashings) are sealed. Screw replacements and silicone sealing create a stable base for coating.</p>

  <h4>3. Prime</h4>
  <p>We apply a high adhesion primer specifically formulated for New Zealand roofing materials. This ensures the Guardian Seal membrane bonds permanently to the surface. It’s a vital step that low cost alternatives often skip.</p>

  <h4>4. Seal</h4>
  <p>Finally, two coats of our proprietary Guardian Seal membrane are applied. This creates a flexible, UV resistant, watertight barrier that expands and contracts with the roof, protecting against leaks and weathering for over a decade.</p>

  <p>The result? A resilient, good as new roof with 10+ years of guaranteed protection, completed in just 2,4 days.</p>

  <p>If your roof is starting to show its age, you might be asking yourself a costly question: should I replace it entirely, or can I restore it another way?</p>

  <p>The good news? You might not need to replace it at all.</p>

  <p>Roof replacement is often seen as the default solution, but it's expensive, disruptive, and time consuming. In contrast, a roof coating system like Guardian Seal offers a smart, cost effective alternative that can deliver similar protection and visual appeal, without the hassle.</p>

  <h4>💸 Cost Comparison</h4>

  <ul>
    <li><strong>Roof replacement:</strong> $15,000,$30,000+ (depending on size and materials).</li>
    <li><strong>Guardian Seal system:</strong> typically 60,70% less.</li>
  </ul>

  <h4>🔨 Labour and Disruption</h4>

  <ul>
    <li>Roof replacement requires stripping the old roof, installing new framing or underlay, and days of noise and mess. It can take 1 to 2 weeks or more depending on weather and complexity.</li>
    <li>Guardian Seal is applied in place. No roof removal, no skip bins, and minimal disruption to daily life. Most applications are completed in 2 to 4 days.</li>
  </ul>

  <h4>⏳ Lifespan and Performance</h4>

  <ul>
    <li>A new roof typically lasts 20 to 30 years, depending on material.</li>
    <li>Guardian Seal offers 10,15+ years of waterproof protection when properly applied and maintained, with a 10 year warranty included.</li>
  </ul>

  <h4>🛡️ What Does Guardian Seal Do?</h4>

  <p>Guardian Seal is more than a paint job. It's a high performance liquid membrane system that:</p>

  <ul>
    <li>Waterproofs the entire roof</li>
    <li>Repairs and protects in a single system</li>
    <li>Offers a 10 year warranty</li>
    <li>Restores your roof's appearance</li>
  </ul>

  <p>If your roof is structurally sound, Guardian Seal is the smarter, faster, and more affordable solution that avoids the cost and chaos of a full replacement.</p>
