Roof Bedding and Pointing


Roof Bedding and Pointing Melbourne

Roof bedding and pointing are essential parts of your roof’s structure. They require regular maintenance to ensure your house stays in top condition. Pro Gutter Cleaning Melbourne provides roof bedding and pointing for any size or style of roof.

Roof bedding is a cement roof tile bedding mortar that holds your roof tiles in place. Roof pointing is a flexible material that goes over the bedding and seals the ridge cap to the tile – it keeps water and other substances out of your roof, ceiling and home.

Over time, roof bedding and pointing are subject to natural wear. If yours have worn out, your tiles are no longer secure. Loose tiles can be dangerous for unsuspecting passers-by and leave your roof exposed to the elements.

Bedding and Rebedding Roof Tiles

The cement work is the second stage in the roof restoration process. On a tiled roof it consists of two parts: The bedding (sand and cement) and the top layer (flexible pointing). Depending on the age and condition of the existing roof it may require a full rebedding roof tiles, a partial re-bed or no bedding at all.

The bedding is the first layer or foundation used to hold on ridge caps, valley tiles and gable tiles. If the existing bedding is in a good strong condition, then it may be a better option to just re-point, every roof is different and the best decision can be made upon inspection.

The second and final layer is called flexible pointing. The flexible pointing is applied over the bedding. Like the name states, its flexible which means there will be no cracking due to the harsh Australian elements. Flexible pointing can be chosen in any colour to match your roof and it gives the whole roof a great looking facelift when applied correctly.
