Roof maintenance and cleaning Saint-Tropez

• Moss removal and cleaning: Given the occasional humidity and high temperatures in summer, roofs in Saint-Tropez require regular maintenance to prevent the accumulation of moss and plant debris. Moss removal, gutter cleaning and inspection of tiles or metal elements are essential to keep a roof in good condition.

Installation of gutters and eaves

• Gutters and drainage systems: The installation of copper, zinc or aluminum gutters is crucial for rainwater management on Tropezian roofs. These systems allow rainwater to be evacuated efficiently and prevent the accumulation of moisture that could damage the roof.

Waterproofing work on flat roofs

• Flat roofs: Although less common, flat roofs are increasingly found on contemporary buildings in Saint-Tropez, particularly in luxury homes and commercial buildings. These roofs are often treated with waterproofing membranes, such as EPDM (ethylene-propylene-diene monomer) or special resins to ensure perfect impermeability to rainwater.

Thermal insulation of the roof

• External thermal insulation (ETI): In a Mediterranean climate like that of Saint-Tropez, thermal insulation is a major issue. Many buildings, particularly old houses, benefit from external roof insulation work. This reduces energy consumption and ensures thermal comfort, particularly in summer, when temperatures can be high.
• Under-roof insulation: Under-roof insulation is also common, especially in modern buildings, to improve energy efficiency while reducing heat entering homes.

Renovation and installation of traditional roofs Saint Tropez

• Terracotta tile roofing (canal tiles): Terracotta tiles are very common in the roofs of Saint-Tropez, especially the canal tiles (or Roman tiles) which are curved and interlock to provide good waterproofing while allowing natural ventilation. These tiles are adapted to the Mediterranean climate, they provide thermal insulation and a traditional aesthetic that blends well with Provençal architecture.
• Aged or patinated tiles: When renovating, craftsmen often look for old tiles or tiles reproduced with an aged appearance in order to preserve the charm and authenticity of the typical roofs of Saint-Tropez, particularly in old districts such as the city center or around the old port.
