Maribyrnong Roofing & Weather Profile

What We See in Maribyrnong

In Maribyrnong, where the housing stock runs predominantly to 1950s–1970s post-war brick veneer, the Concrete Tiles ridge capping mortar has often been in place since the original builder walked off-site. After 30 to 40 years of wet-dry cycles, that original mix carbonates through and cracks across its full face — it's the norm on these roofs, not the exception.

Why It Happens

On Melbourne winter nights, frost can form on unprotected ridge mortar. Water expanding by approximately 9% as it freezes is sufficient to drive crack propagation in already-weakened pointing — each freeze-thaw cycle incrementally widens existing cracks.

How We Fix It

All our repointing work on Maribyrnong'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."
