Why Choose Us for Rebedding in Aubin Grove?
Ridge caps and hip tiles in Aubin Grove shift and crack because of clay soil movement beneath the house. Rebedding means removing the old mortar, resetting the tiles in new flexible mortar, and pointing neatly. We use polymer-modified mortar rated for reactive clay soils so the joint moves with your house rather than cracking again after six months. Your ridge stays watertight through seasons of clay expansion and contraction.
Ridge caps on Aubin Grove tile roofs sit on mortar that cracks from seasonal clay soil movement. Winter saturation expands the clay beneath, pushing the ridge up and out of alignment. Rebedding resets caps on fresh flexible mortar that accommodates annual movement. Without rebedding, the mortar gaps widen annually, allowing water entry under the tiles.

Local Aubin Grove Expertise
Aubin Grove represents the transitional generation of Perth's southern development - newer than Atwell and Success, but more established than Hammond Park. Located 25km south of Perth CBD in the City of Cockburn, the suburb was developed primarily through the 2000s and early 2010s, with most homes now 10-20 years old. This places Aubin Grove squarely in the critical window where builder warranties have expired and original roofing materials are showing their first significant signs of wear. The proximity to Beeliar Regional Park wetlands adds moisture challenges on the eastern boundary, while heavy clay soils throughout the suburb cause ground movement that cracks mortar and shifts tiles. At Roof Restorers Perth, we have been restoring Aubin Grove roofs with 15+ years of team experience, protecting these modern homes before minor deterioration becomes costly structural damage.
Benefits of Rebedding for Aubin Grove Properties
Fixes caps at the cause
When the mortar bed under a ridge cap breaks down, the cap loosens and lets water in. Rebedding re-lays the cap on fresh mortar so it sits solid again, which pointing alone can't do.
Done with repointing
Rebedding and repointing go together. We re-bed the caps, then seal them with flexible pointing, so the whole ridge line is solid and watertight in one job.
Stops caps lifting in the wind
A cap sitting on failed bedding can slide or lift in a Perth storm. Rebedding fixes it down properly before it ends up in the yard.
Cheaper than the damage
Loose caps and a failing ridge line let water straight into the roof. Rebedding early costs far less than the leaks and ceiling damage that follow.
Our Rebedding Process in Aubin Grove
- 1
Check the ridge line
We inspect every ridge and hip cap and the mortar bed under it, and work out which caps need re-bedding versus just repointing.
Why it matters: Not every cap needs the full job.
- 2
Lift the failed caps
Caps sitting on broken-down bedding are lifted off and the old mortar cleared away.
Why it matters: Fresh mortar needs a clean surface to bond to.
- 3
Re-bed on fresh mortar
The caps are re-laid on a fresh mortar bed, set straight and solid along the ridge.
Why it matters: The bedding is what physically holds the cap.
- 4
Repoint with flexible compound
Once bedded, the caps are sealed with flexible pointing, colour-matched to the roof.
Why it matters: Flexible pointing seals the join and moves with the roof.

How often do ridge caps need rebedding on Aubin Grove tile roofs? ▾
Clay soil movement in Aubin Grove pushes mortar out of ridges faster than in sandy suburbs. Initial rebedding is often due within 10-15 years of a roof's age. After that, inspect every 5-7 years. Many Aubin Grove homes need rebedding at the same time as full restoration because the original mortar can't handle ongoing movement.
What's the difference between just pointing cracks in the ridge mortar and full rebedding? ▾
Pointing fills individual cracks temporarily. Rebedding removes all old mortar and resets the ridge cap on fresh, flexible mortar rated for ground movement. In Aubin Grove, clay soil keeps flexing, so rebedding lasts much longer than crack filling. It costs $1,800 to $2,500 but prevents ongoing leaks.
Does a rebedding job carry the leak warranty? ▾
Not by itself. The leak warranty applies only where the entire tiled roof has been restored including full repointing of all ridge capping - partial or sectional work doesn't carry it. A standalone rebed is still covered by the 12-month workmanship guarantee on the bedding and pointing we do, and we'll be clear about which applies before you commit.
What's the difference between rebedding and repointing? ▾
Bedding is the mortar bed the ridge cap sits on. Pointing is the flexible compound that seals the join on top. Rebedding re-lays the cap on fresh mortar; repointing seals it. A cap with failed bedding needs both. We'll tell you which yours needs.
How much does roof rebedding cost in Perth? ▾
It depends on how many caps need re-bedding and access to the roof. Call 08 6388 4492 or request a quote for a fixed price. We usually rebed and repoint in the one visit, which is more cost-effective than doing them separately.
Do I need rebedding or just repointing? ▾
If the caps are still solid and only the pointing has cracked, repointing alone does it. If the caps are loose or the mortar bed underneath has crumbled, they need re-bedding first. Pointing over failed bedding just fails again.
How long does rebedding last? ▾
Caps re-bedded on fresh mortar and sealed with flexible pointing typically last 10 to 15 years or more.
Can you match the pointing to my roof colour? ▾
Yes. Flexible pointing comes in a range of colours and we match it to your tiles for a clean, consistent ridge line.
What Our Customers Say
"The overall experience dealing with the Roof Restorers was excellent. Ryan was very flexible in coordinating the job and dealing with the unreliable weather. Jack was very professional and explained every step of the project and kept us informed on the progress. He was always on time and was articulate in cleaning the roof, repairing areas, including the ridge caps and then restoring the paintwork. We are happy with the final result. I'm very confident in recommending this company. 👍👍👍👍👍"
"The roof restoration really made my home a completely new house. Besides the weather keeping the work delayed nothing else I could fault them. I got a competitive quote, no hidden cost, very professional and the work they have done was fantastic. My neighbours love their work and asked for a quote too. I highly recommend! P.S. I know that the photos seems to be totally different but I recently painted my house and the roof is just the last thing needed to be done. There are things that I needed professional."
