Ardeer Roofing & Weather Profile

What We See in Ardeer

A lot of the 1950s–1970s post-war brick veneer housing in Ardeer was laid with a very lean mortar mix for the ridge bedding — standard practice at the time, but not engineered for longevity. After a few decades those mixes crumble at the edges and lose their mechanical bond to the Concrete Tiles profile.

Why It Happens

When pointing cracks, it creates a capillary pathway for water. Capillary action doesn't require hydrostatic pressure — surface tension pulls water into any crack wider than a few microns. Once water reaches the tile bedding it softens the bond and the cycle of deterioration accelerates.

How We Fix It

We use a flexible acrylic pointing compound over a polymer-modified bedding mix. The acrylic pointing is UV-stable and maintains elasticity across Melbourne's full temperature range — which is the precise point where rigid cement fails.

"Got three quotes. True Roof wasn't the cheapest but was clearly the most professional. 10-year warranty sealed the deal. 6 months later, not a single issue."
