Restore the Strength & Seal of Your Tiled Roof
Your roof’s ridge caps are the first line of defence against high winds, rain, and shifting tiles. Over time, the bedding (cement mortar) under the ridge caps can crack or deteriorate, leading to loose tiles and water leaks. That’s where re-bedding and re-pointing come in — and it’s one of the key services we offer at Tasmanian Roof Tiling.
If you’ve noticed ridge tiles out of alignment, cracked mortar, or signs of leaking, it might be time to restore the integrity of your roof with our expert ridge cap services.
What Is Ridge Cap Re-bedding & Re-pointing?
Re-bedding
This involves removing old, damaged mortar beneath your ridge caps and laying down a fresh bed of strong, weather-resistant mortar to secure them in place.
Re-pointing
Once the ridge caps are re-bedded, we apply a flexible pointing compound over the joints. This seals gaps, adds strength, and protects against future water penetration and movement.
Why It's Important in Tasmania
Tasmania’s changing weather — from strong winds and frosty winters to heavy rainfall — can wear down ridge capping over time. Failing to maintain this part of your roof can lead to:
- Leaks and water damage
- Tile movement and roof instability
- Moss growth and deterioration
- Decreased roof life and curb appeal
Regular inspection and timely repairs help avoid costly issues down the track.
