Lilydale Roofing & Weather Profile

What We See in Lilydale

After a significant wind event, ridge caps often shift laterally — not enough to fall, but enough to break the pointing joint. The cap looks intact from the street but the seal underneath is gone and the next rain goes straight through.

Why It Happens

A single Concrete Tiles tile can expand by 0.5 to 1mm over a hot Melbourne summer day. Multiply that across a 10-cap ridge run on a Lilydale home and the cumulative movement is significant. Pointing that cannot flex absorbs that movement as stress and eventually shears.

How We Fix It

All our repointing work on Lilydale's Concrete Tiles is done to AS 2050 (Installation of Roof Tiles) as the baseline standard. That specification mandates polymer-modified mortar — we don't use straight sand-cement on any job, regardless of what the original installer used.

"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."
