Roof Re-Pointing That Keeps the Weather Out

Mortar holds the edges of a tiled or slate roof in place: along the verges at the gable ends, down the hips, and where the roof meets a wall or parapet. Sun, frost and rain wear it down, and once it cracks or drops out, wind can lift the tiles and water can get underneath them.

We rake out the failed mortar, re-point the joints with fresh mortar and re-bed any loose tiles as we go, so the edges of the roof are secure again. Ridge tiles are covered on our ridge line re-pointing page, and chimney stacks on our chimney repointing page.

We cover the whole area, including re-pointing in Wilmslow, Stockport and Altrincham.

Pricing

What Affects the Cost of Roof Re-Pointing

Roof re-pointing is priced on the length of the edges and how much mortar has failed. The main factors are:

  • The length of verges, hips and abutments
  • Re-pointing only, or re-bedding loose tiles too
  • Replacement tiles needed
  • Access and scaffolding
  • Roof height and pitch

How it works

How It Works: Re-Pointing

What happens from your first call to the finished job.

  1. Inspect the Roof

    We check the verges, hips, abutments and flashings and note where the mortar has failed.

  3. Rake Out and Re-Bed

    Failed mortar is raked out, and any loose tiles are lifted and re-bedded.

  4. Re-Point and Tidy

    Joints are re-pointed and finished, and the gutters and ground are cleared of mortar.

Good to know

Questions About Re-Pointing

How do I know if my roof needs re-pointing?

Look for cracked or missing mortar along the gable edges and hips, pieces of mortar in the gutters or on the ground, and tiles that have shifted. Damp on a gable wall or a ceiling near the edge of the roof can be another sign.

Is roof re-pointing different from ridge re-pointing?

Ridge re-pointing covers the tiles along the top of the roof. Roof re-pointing covers the other mortared edges: the verges at the gable ends, the hips and the joints where the roof meets a wall. We can do both in one visit.

Do you re-point chimneys as well?

Yes. Chimney stacks have their own page, because stack work also covers the flashing, flaunching and pots. See our chimney repointing page.
