Roof Repointing

Repointing is a method whereby the loose or broken mortar is scraped away and replaced with new. As a result, homeowners typically request this work to be carried out when the roof tiles still have life in them but the ridge has begun to fail.

Roof pointing and bedding are essential parts to the structure of the roof and if traditional methods are used require regular maintenance to ensure your roof stays in its best condition.

Roof Bedding… The cement mortar mix that holds the roof tiles in place. Over a period of time and exposure to all weather conditions, it will incur natural wear and result in loose tiles and broken mortar. If the bedding is not well maintained it can easily crack and fall away, therefore, leaving your tiles loose and exposed and can easily become a danger if they are to fall.

Repointing Roof Cost

The cost of employing a professional roofer to fix your broken tiles will vary depending on three main areas.

When you get a free quote from a roofer, they will need to take into consideration the duration of the work. Next, they will have to estimate how much the material will cost, and then how much their labour is valued at, which will be related to how much time the work will take.

It’s important to act quickly when you notice that your roof doesn’t look like it used to. Minor issues can quickly escalate. For example, if your ridge tiles have become cracked or have slipped out of their mortar, then water will probably get inside your roof. This is a problem. But it’s a small problem that an expert can sort for you in a matter of hours.

If you leave it too long, however, you’re going to need to shell out a lot more money to get the issue fixed. There’s even a chance that you’ll no longer be able to mend the tiles, and you’ll instead need to get whole new ridge tiles put in, or even your entire roof might need replacing.
