Mickleham Roofing & Weather Profile

What We See in Mickleham

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

The bond between mortar and tile depends on the surface porosity of the tile and the water-cement ratio of the original mix. Old terracotta is highly porous — it absorbs moisture from the mortar during curing, which weakens the interfacial bond even when the mix proportions are correct.

How We Fix It

Every ridge cap is manually pressed and checked for movement before we start pointing. Any cap with compromised bedding gets fully re-seated in fresh mortar first — pointing over a loose cap is a callback waiting to happen. The pointing pass is done separately once the bedding has cured.

"True Roof fixed a leak that three other companies couldn't find. Incredibly thorough inspection, identified the real cause and repaired it properly. No more ceiling stains. Five stars, easy."

"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."
