True Roof operating Melbourne wide.
Cracked or failing roof mortar on your ridge capping is a common problem in Maidstone and across the Melbourne Western Suburbs. Ignoring it leads to leaks, rot, and expensive structural damage. True Roof provides professional roof repointing services to restore integrity and extend your roof’s lifespan.
Loose or crumbling mortar on your roof’s ridge capping is more than just unsightly. It’s a direct threat to your home’s structure and contents. Many homeowners overlook these signs until serious damage occurs.
Damaged mortar creates gaps that allow water to penetrate your roof, leading to costly leaks, ceiling damage, and timber rot.
Ignoring early signs means small repairs become major restoration projects, potentially costing thousands more down the line.
You often cant see the extent of the damage from the ground, allowing problems like pest entry or structural issues to worsen unnoticed.
Proactive repointing addresses mortar issues early, preventing major leaks and structural damage that require expensive fixes later.
We use high-quality flexible pointing compounds that seal gaps effectively, keeping water out and protecting your home.
Sealing gaps prevents rodents, birds, and insects from entering your roof space. Secure tiles reduce danger during strong winds.
Repointing is essential maintenance that significantly extends the life of your tile roof, delaying the need for a full replacement.
We make restoring your roof’s integrity straightforward and hassle-free:
We conduct a thorough inspection to assess the condition of your ridge capping, bedding mortar, and tiles.
Old, failing mortar is carefully removed. We then re-bed the ridge tiles using a fresh, strong mortar mix.
A durable, flexible pointing compound is applied over the re-bedded tiles, creating a strong, weather-resistant seal.
This process ensures your ridge capping is secure, watertight, and ready to protect your home for years to come.

The mortar holding your ridge tiles in place deteriorates over time due to weather exposure. Failing mortar leads to loose tiles, gaps, and water leaks, which can cause significant damage to your roof structure and home interior. Repointing replaces this old mortar to secure tiles and create a watertight seal.
The duration depends on the size of your roof and the extent of the existing damage. A standard house roof typically takes 1-3 days. We provide a clear timeframe with your free quote after the inspection.
Re-bedding involves removing the old mortar bed and setting the ridge tiles back down onto a new cement mortar mix. Repointing is the process of applying a flexible compound over the top of the re-bedded ridge tiles to create a weather-tight seal and finish.
Flexible pointing compound is designed to flex slightly with the natural movement of the roof due to temperature changes and building shifts. Traditional sand and cement mortar is rigid and tends to crack easily under this movement, leading to premature failure. Flexible pointing offers superior durability and crack resistance.
Don’t wait until small cracks become major problems. Get peace of mind with professional roof repointing from True Roof. We provide expert service across Maidstone and the wider Melbourne Western Suburbs.
