True Roof operating Melbourne wide.
Has the mortar on your roof ridge capping started to crumble? Ignoring damaged mortar can lead to costly leaks, rot, and structural issues. True Roof provides professional roof repointing services using flexible compounds to protect your home.
Over time, traditional roof mortar breaks down due to weather, expansion, and contraction. This leaves your ridge capping vulnerable, creating gaps that invite water, pests, and further damage. Ignoring this problem is a common mistake.
Cracked mortar can be hard to spot from the ground, hiding potential entry points for water that cause expensive damage inside your home.
Small issues like failing mortar inevitably become large, expensive problems like timber rot or ceiling damage if left untreated.
Gaps in ridge capping aren’t just for water. They allow rodents, birds, and insects into your roof space and loosen tiles, creating safety risks.
Proactive repointing prevents cascading damage, delaying or eliminating the need for a full roof replacement, saving you significant money.
We use high-quality flexible pointing compounds that move with your roof, creating a durable, waterproof seal that prevents leaks.
Our experienced tradesmen identify and fix all bedding and pointing issues, including replacing broken tiles, ensuring a complete and professional repair.
Secure ridge capping protects your home from pests and weather damage, improving its safety, curb appeal, and overall market value.
We make getting your roof repointed easy and hassle-free:
We start with a thorough inspection of your roof to assess the condition of your bedding and pointing and provide a clear, no-obligation quote.
Old, loose mortar is removed, and ridge capping is re-bedded firmly where needed using a fresh sand and cement mix.
We finish with a coat of high-quality flexible pointing compound, creating a strong, durable, and weather-resistant seal.
