Is Your Roof’s Mortar Cracking or Failing?
Failing mortar on your roof’s ridge capping is more than just an eyesore. It’s a serious vulnerability that can compromise your home’s integrity and lead to significant problems.
Loose or Cracked Mortar
Old mortar mix cracks due to weather and roof movement. This weakens the hold on ridge tiles, potentially leading to costly structural issues.
Costly Water Leaks
Gaps in mortar allow rainwater to penetrate, causing leaks into your ceiling and walls. This can result in expensive internal damage and rot.
Pests Finding Entry
Broken or missing mortar provides easy access points for rodents, birds, and insects to enter your roof cavity, creating unwanted infestations.
The Solution: Professional Roof Repointing
Stop Costly Leaks
Our professional repointing creates a watertight seal, preventing rainwater from getting under ridge tiles and into your home.
Extend Roof Lifespan
Protecting your ridge capping maintains the integrity of your roof structure, significantly extending its overall working life.

Common Questions About Roof Repointing
Traditional mortar mixes lose their strength and crack over time due to exposure to the elements, temperature changes, and natural roof movement. Flexible pointing compounds are designed to withstand this movement better.
The time required depends on the size and complexity of your roof, as well as the current condition of the mortar. A typical residential roof might take anywhere from one to a few days, weather permitting.
We highly recommend flexible pointing compound over traditional mortar. Its flexibility allows it to move with the roof structure, preventing the cracks that occur with rigid mortar and providing a longer-lasting, watertight seal.
Re-bedding involves securing the ridge tiles to the roof with a fresh base layer of mortar. Repointing is the process of applying the final layer of coloured, often flexible, compound over the bedding mortar to create a strong seal and tidy finish.
Ready to Protect Your Home?
Don’t wait for minor cracks to become major leaks and expensive damage. Investing in professional roof repointing now secures your roof’s integrity and saves you money in the long run.
