Is Your Roof Telling You It Needs Repointing?
Timely roof repointing prevents costly damage. Look out for these common signs on your Melbourne tile roof, especially around the ridge capping:
Visible Cracks in Mortar
Look closely at the cement under your ridge tiles. Hairline or larger cracks are a clear sign the mortar is failing.
Water Leaks in Ceiling
Stains or dampness on your ceiling, especially after rain, often indicate water is getting past failed pointing.
Loose or Missing Mortar
Chunks of cement missing from under the ridge capping or mortar that feels loose and crumbly needs immediate attention.
Slipped or Loose Ridge Tiles
If your ridge capping tiles look uneven, shifted, or insecure, the underlying bedding mortar has likely failed.
General Roof Age (15+ Years)
Even without obvious signs, if your roof pointing is over 15-20 years old, it’s likely nearing the end of its effective life and needs inspection.

Melbourne Roof Repointing: Your Questions Answered
Rebedding involves removing the old, deteriorated cement mortar underneath your roof’s ridge capping tiles and applying a fresh layer of new mortar mix to secure them. Repointing is the process of applying a final layer (pointing) over the bedding mortar. Traditionally, this was cement mortar, but modern best practice uses a durable flexible pointing compound which resists cracking and creates a strong, watertight seal along the ridge line.
Common signs include: visible cracks or gaps in the mortar under the ridge capping, loose or dislodged ridge tiles, chunks of mortar falling off or found in gutters, water leaks or stains appearing on your ceiling below the ridge line. If your roof is over 15-20 years old and hasn’t been repointed, an inspection is recommended, especially for terracotta or cement tile roofs.
Modern flexible pointing compounds are far superior for repointing. Unlike traditional cement mortar which becomes brittle and cracks easily with temperature changes and slight roof movement (common in Melbourne weather), flexible pointing is designed to expand and contract. This significantly reduces the chance of cracking, ensures a longer-lasting watertight seal, and provides better adhesion to the ridge tiles and bedding.
When done correctly by experienced tradesmen using high-quality flexible pointing compounds, professional roof repointing should last for many years, often 10-15 years or more, depending on Melbourne’s weather conditions and other roof factors. It significantly outlasts traditional mortar pointing and provides excellent long-term value for maintaining your roof’s structural integrity.
The cost of roof repointing varies based on factors like the length of the ridge capping needing work (size of the roof), whether a full re-bed is required or just repointing, ease of access (single vs. double storey), the type of roof tile (terracotta, cement), and the extent of any underlying damage. We provide a detailed, fixed quote after a free on-site inspection.
Yes, rebedding and repointing are fundamental parts of a complete roof restoration service for tile roofs. A full restoration typically also includes cleaning the roof, replacing any broken tiles, potentially roof painting, and ensuring the entire roof structure is sound and watertight. Repointing addresses the critical ridge capping area.
