Ridge Line Re-pointing

Secure Ridge Tiles with Fresh Mortar

The ridge takes more weather than any other part of the roof. Over time the mortar under and between the ridge tiles cracks and falls away, leaving gaps for water and tiles that can lift in high winds.

Where the bedding is sound, re-pointing the joints is enough. Where tiles are loose, we lift them, clean them, and re-bed them on fresh mortar before pointing the joints, so the whole ridge line is secure again.

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

Good to know

Questions About Ridge Line Re-Pointing

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

Look for gaps in the mortar along the ridge, mortar on the ground or in the gutters, and tiles that look uneven. Leaks near the top of the roof are another sign.

What is the difference between re-pointing and re-bedding?

Re-pointing replaces the mortar in the joints between the tiles. Re-bedding lifts the tiles and replaces the mortar underneath them as well, which is needed when tiles are loose.

Will re-pointing the ridge stop my roof leaking?

If the leak is coming through the ridge, yes. Leaks can also come from tiles, flashings or valleys, so we check the roof as a whole before quoting.
