True Roof operating Melbourne wide.
Is your roof’s mortar cracking or crumbling? True Roof provides professional roof repointing services in Hoppers Crossing and across the Melbourne Western Suburbs. Don’t wait for leaks to appear – fix failing mortar and ensure your roof is watertight.
Cracked or aged mortar on your roof’s ridge capping is more than just an eyesore. It’s a ticking time bomb that can lead to significant damage and costly repairs if not addressed promptly.
Damaged mortar creates openings for water to seep under tiles, leading to ceiling leaks, timber rot, and costly internal damage.
Early repointing is a small investment compared to the thousands you could spend fixing extensive water damage or replacing large sections of your roof.
Much of the damage caused by failing mortar happens unseen beneath the tiles, quietly weakening your roof’s structure over time.
Gaps in mortar are perfect entry points for rodents, birds, and insects seeking shelter, causing further damage and health risks.
Invest in the longevity and integrity of your home with expert roof repointing by True Roof. We fix the problem at its source, protecting your property for years to come.
Addressing mortar issues early prevents expensive water damage and structural rot, saving you thousands in the long run.
We use quality flexible pointing compounds that create a durable, watertight seal, preventing leaks and moisture penetration.
Properly repointing your roof preserves the structural integrity of the ridge capping, significantly extending the life of your tiled roof.
Loose tiles caused by poor mortar are dangerous. Repointing secures them, improves curb appeal, and protects your investment.
We follow a thorough process to ensure your roof’s ridge capping is expertly repaired and protected:
We inspect your roof’s ridge capping and mortar to identify all areas requiring rebedding or repointing.
Loose and cracked old mortar is carefully removed from the ridge tiles and capping, preparing the surface for new bedding.
If the base bedding mortar is deteriorated, ridge caps are lifted, re-bedded with fresh mortar mix, and realigned.
A durable, flexible pointing compound is applied over the bedding, sealing gaps and providing a strong, weather-resistant finish.
This process ensures a secure, watertight, and long-lasting repair for your roof’s ridge capping.
Witness the transformation our professional roof repointing service provides. From cracked and aged mortar to a clean, sealed, and secure roof.

Roof repointing involves applying new mortar (or flexible pointing compound) to the joints of the ridge capping tiles on your roof. Over time, traditional mortar cracks and crumbles due to weather, allowing water to penetrate and cause damage. Repointing seals these gaps, protecting your roof structure.
The cost of roof repointing varies depending on the size of your roof, the extent of existing damage, and whether re-bedding is also required. Our services start from ~$1200 AUD. We provide a free, no-obligation inspection and quote to give you an accurate price for your specific roof.
For most residential roofs, repointing can be completed within 1-2 days, depending on the size and condition of the roof and weather conditions. We work efficiently to minimise disruption to your home.
Flexible pointing is a modern compound that is much more durable and flexible than traditional sand and cement mortar. It expands and contracts with temperature changes, preventing the cracking common with old mortar and providing a longer-lasting, watertight seal.
Look for visible cracks in the mortar along the ridge capping and hip tiles. Crumbling or missing mortar is a clear sign. If you see efflorescence (white powdery substance) or damp spots on your ceiling below the ridge, it’s highly likely your mortar is failing. A professional inspection is the best way to confirm.
Don’t let failing mortar compromise your home’s structure and lead to expensive water damage. Get a professional inspection and quote from True Roof today.
