Is Your Roof’s Mortar Failing?
Worn-out roof mortar is a common problem in Melbourne, often leading to significant and expensive issues if left untreated. Don’t wait for small cracks to become major leaks.
Water Leaks & Structural Damage
Cracked or missing mortar allows water to seep under tiles, damaging your roof structure, ceilings, and internal walls.
Increased Repair Costs Later
Delaying repointing means minor mortar issues can escalate into the need for full roof restoration or extensive repairs.
Hidden Damage
Often, the worst damage is invisible from the ground, silently compromising your roof’s integrity until major failure occurs.
The Benefits of Professional Roof Repointing
Save Money Long-Term
Proactive repointing is significantly cheaper than repairing extensive water damage or replacing your entire roof later.
Durable Flexible Pointing
We use high-quality flexible pointing compounds that withstand Melbourne’s weather changes better than traditional mortar.
Comprehensive Inspection
Our process includes checking for broken tiles and performing necessary re-bedding to ensure a complete fix.
Enhanced Protection
Properly sealed ridge capping and roof tiles prevent water leaks, pest entry, and improve your roof’s structural stability.

Frequently Asked Questions
The lifespan of roof mortar depends on many factors including original mortar quality and weather conditions. Typically mortar lasts 15-25 years. We recommend regular inspections every 5-10 years to catch issues early and prevent costly damage.
Re-bedding involves replacing the sand and cement mortar mix that holds the ridge capping tiles onto the roof. Repointing is applying a protective layer (traditionally mortar or now flexible compound) over the top of the bedding to seal it and provide a finished look. Both are often needed for a complete repair.
While minor DIY patching might seem like a quick fix it’s often temporary and ineffective. Improper patching can trap water or fail quickly leading to more severe issues. Professional repointing ensures a proper diagnosis of the problem and a durable solution using the correct materials.
Traditional mortar can crack over time due to building movement and temperature changes. Flexible pointing compounds are designed to flex with these movements, providing a longer-lasting and more resilient seal against water and pests. It’s a modern upgrade offering superior protection.
