Expert Ridge Cap Repairs
Ridge capping prevents leaks, ensuring your roof’s stability and protecting your home from weather damage.
Although tiled roofs tend to be durable and last a long time, they will eventually become brittle from weather extremes – rain, wind, sun, cold. The mortar eventually begins to deteriorate and become a crumbling mass.
Maintaining a roof in good condition is a priority if you own a house in Perth. Although many aspects of the roof are significant, we tend to overlook the importance of ridge capping.

Repointing
Repointing a roof refers to resealing ridge cap mortar when it cracks and allows water penetration. Repointing can be done by following these steps when repairing the ridge cap mortar.
The pointing material used is a mortar that adheres to your roof tiles. Roofers formerly used inflexible cement in the pointing process but flexible polymer compound has now become the industry standard.
When applied correctly, the flexible mixture will not deteriorate from heavy UV radiation and may last up to 25 years.

Rebedding
Repointing and rebedding go hand in hand. The ridge caps are placed on the mortar concrete ‘bed’.
We will then re-bed your roof if necessary. This involves replacing your old bedding with new bedding and poking holes until we finally place the new caps back on top.
We also use this process to prepare a roof for a complete tiled roof restoration.

Cracked Ridge Caps
Water damage and structural damage can be caused by water seeping into roof cavities due to cracked, missing, or broken mortar.
The Roof Lads can help you prevent the problem from becoming too serious.
We know how to make a roof last. We offer a wide range of roofing services from replacing cracked tiles to fixing shingles to waterproofing.
What is ridge capping?
Ridge Capping: Essential Protection for Your Roof
Ridge capping comprises the triangular-shaped tiles used to cover roof joints. Suitable for all roofs with sloped surfaces, these tiles have been a crucial roofing element for centuries.
Located at the roof’s peak, ridge caps are more vulnerable to wear and tear compared to other roofing components. They play a pivotal role in protecting your home from potential water ingress and structural damage.
Why Ridge Capping Matters
Ridge capping performs critical functions by covering the point where roof angles intersect.
Because they are exposed and positioned at the roof’s highest point, these tiles are more susceptible to deterioration and require careful maintenance.
Installation Insights
The installation process is relatively straightforward. Ridge caps are secured using cement (bedding) and then sealed with a flexible, rubber-based mortar.
This approach ensures both structural integrity and aesthetic appeal, with colour matching to complement your existing roof.
