True Roof operating Melbourne wide.
Roof tiles are built to last, but the mortar bedding and pointing securing them often breaks down over time. This leads to loose tiles and potential water leaks.
Over time, weather and age cause the cement mortar on your ridge capping to crack and crumble. This isn’t just an eyesore; it’s a direct threat to your home.
Crumbling mortar allows water to penetrate under your tiles, leading to ceiling damage, timber rot, and costly structural issues.
Ignoring minor mortar damage leads to bigger problems down the line. What could have been a simple repair becomes a major, expensive restoration.
Damage is often invisible from the ground. Loose ridge tiles are a hazard, especially in strong winds, posing a risk to property and safety.
Gaps in your ridge capping are open invitations for birds, rodents, and insects to nest in your roof space.
Proactive repointing addresses issues early, preventing leaks, rot, and structural damage that could cost you thousands later.
Our expert repointing with flexible compound creates a durable, watertight seal, protecting your home from rain and moisture.
By securing your ridge capping and protecting against water ingress, professional repointing significantly extends the life of your roof tiles.
A well-maintained roof enhances curb appeal, can lower insurance risks, and ensures loose tiles dont pose a danger.
We make restoring your ridge capping straightforward and stress-free:
We inspect your roof tiles and ridge capping to identify areas needing repointing or re-bedding.
Old, failing mortar is carefully removed, and the areas are cleaned to ensure a strong bond for the new material.

The mortar on your ridge capping naturally deteriorates over time due to weather exposure. Failing mortar leads to loose tiles and allows water to leak into your roof space, causing potentially expensive damage.
The process involves removing old, cracked mortar from ridge capping, cleaning the area, and then applying new flexible pointing compound. If the bedding mortar underneath is also failing, re-bedding will be done first.
Professional repointing using high-quality flexible compounds is very durable. True Roof provides an up to 7+ year guarantee on our repointing work for your assurance.
Costs vary based on the size and complexity of the roof and the extent of damage. Our repointing services start from $1200 AUD. We provide a free, no-obligation quote after a thorough inspection.
Working on roofs is dangerous and requires specific skills and materials. Incorrect techniques or materials can cause more harm than good and may void warranties. It’s best left to experienced tradesmen.
Generally, insurance covers damage from sudden events like storms, but typically requires you to maintain your roof. Repointing is considered maintenance. Insurers may deny claims if damage was caused by neglected mortar.
Dont let failing mortar lead to costly leaks and damage. Secure your roof and gain peace of mind with expert roof repointing from True Roof.
