Ridge tiles shield the top of your roof from wind and rain. Over the years the mortar bedding them in can crack and crumble, which leads to loose tiles, leaks and wider damage. Safeway Roofing & Chimneys repoints ridge tiles to bring back the strength and safety of your roof.
We carefully clear out the failing mortar, clean the area and bed each ridge tile in fresh, durable mortar. That keeps water out, steadies the ridge and adds years to your roof. We work on every roof type and pay close attention to the finish.
Whether you have cracked mortar, loose tiles or simply want to look after your roof, ridge repointing is a dependable, cost-effective way to protect it for the long term.
It means replacing the mortar that holds your ridge tiles in place so the roof stays secure and weatherproof.
Look for cracked or missing mortar, loose ridge tiles, water stains in the attic and gaps along the ridge line.
Most jobs take a few hours up to a day, depending on the size and condition of the roof.
If the tiles are in good condition, repointing is usually enough to restore strength and stop leaks. Replacement is only needed when tiles are cracked or damaged.
