Ridge Condition Profile
Aberfeldie Roofing & Weather Profile
What We See in Aberfeldie
Salt-laden air shortens the life of cementitious materials measurably. On Aberfeldie's Terracotta Tiles roofs, chloride penetration accelerates carbonation of the bedding mortar — often cutting 10 to 15 years off its expected service life compared to the same material further inland.
Why It Happens
When a cap is displaced laterally by wind, the bedding shears at the base. The vertical load from the cap is then concentrated on a reduced contact area, which accelerates further movement. One shifted cap progressively destabilises adjacent sections — the failure propagates along the ridge.
How We Fix It
Failed bedding is cut back to the tile surface with an angle grinder, the dust blown out with compressed air, the substrate dampened, and a properly proportioned polymer-modified mix applied. Skipping any one of those steps is where repointing callbacks originate.
