Concrete roof tiles typically have a long and durable life as a roofing material, however, over many years the surface may fade, show signs of aging or develop unsightly residue from lichen or moss.  During the manufacturing process, tiles attain their colour through the addition and mixing of pigments and cement. In the harsh Australian climate, many roof tiles fade over time, leaving a less than desirable surface finish. 

Previously applied paint can also fade or flake, leaving a tiled roof in poor condition and more susceptible to ongoing deterioration. In colder parts of Australia or roofs with South facing aspects, lichen or moss can build up on the roof surface and hold moisture, which can lead to structural issues.

Pointing and bedding are some of the main things that hold your tile roof together and make it watertight. This is often called "mortar" or "cement," but it has not been commonly used since 1995. If your roof has not been replaced or repointed since then, it may be well overdue for some restoration work.
