Banyule Roofing & Weather Profile

What We See in Banyule

Hip and valley junctions are the hardest-working sections on a tiled roof — they concentrate water flow and carry more structural movement than anywhere else. On Melbourne's established period homes, the pointing along these joints is reliably the first to fail.

Why It Happens

Lime-based mortars used in pre-1950s homes are more permeable than modern cement mixes — they breathe rather than trap moisture. When they fail, they tend to wash out gradually. Replacing them with rigid cement creates a stiffness mismatch that concentrates stress at the tile-mortar interface and accelerates localised failure.

How We Fix It

The pointing profile we apply is a weathered bead — slightly recessed from the cap edge and tooled to direct water away from the tile face. A flush or proud pointing bead is a common cause of water undercutting the joint, and it's straightforward to get right during application.

"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."
