Local proof points
Salt-laden air shortens the life of cementitious materials measurably. On Fawkner's Concrete 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.
Salt crystallisation is a mechanical weathering process. Salt in solution enters mortar pores when the roof is wet and crystallises as it dries. The crystals expand under formation pressure and generate internal stress that fractures the mortar from the inside — the damage is invisible until the surface spalls.
Where bedding failure is concentrated on wind-exposed sections — typically the west and northwest-facing ridges — we re-bed only the affected caps rather than quoting a full-roof repoint. Matching the scope to the actual problem is how we maintain repeat business.
