Why Choose Us for Rebedding in Bassendean?

Terracotta tiles 80 to 100 years old in Bassendean's heritage homes sit on a bed of lime mortar that's long past its best. When tiles shift or crack, often the mortar underneath has turned to dust. Rebedding means resetting tiles into a new flexible polymer bedding compound that actually grips the tile and won't crack like old lime mortar did. It's labour-intensive work and usually done alongside full repointing and restoration. If we see loose tiles during inspection, we'll factor rebedding into the quote. For heritage homes, rebedding is the only way to get tiles to sit properly and stay put through Perth's temperature swings and river moisture.

Rebedding relays the mortar bedding under roof tiles. On Bassendean's heritage homes, original mortar has crumbled over 80 years. When you walk the roof, tiles rock or feel unstable. Flexible polymer instead of rigid cement mortar lets the roof move with temperature changes. Heritage homes need this flexibility. Rigid mortar cracks the tiles. We match mortar colour to original so heritage precinct homes maintain their appearance.

Benefits of Rebedding for Bassendean 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 Bassendean

  1. 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. 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. 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. 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.

What's the difference between rebedding and repointing on my old roof?

Repointing fixes ridge caps. Rebedding relays mortar under the tiles themselves. If tiles rock underfoot, rebedding is the fix. Heritage homes need flexible mortar instead of rigid cement.

How much does rebedding cost?

It's usually included in full restoration. If you just need rebedding without other work, we assess each roof individually since costs depend on area and complexity. Call for a quote.

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.

"I just want to say a HUGE THANK YOU .. this goes especially to Jack, both my husband and I are very impressed with his conduct here and the way he went about his job and then to give us a run down of what he did as we were both at work at the time. He's very knowledgeable and he was very good and friendly to us both which was nice. So thank you again for organising this and having someone like Jack to represent your company. I do hope your company look after him as he is a real gem. Our roof pointing looks awesome and we are ready for the winter months ahead. I would not hesitate in recommending your company to friends and family after such awesome service you guys provided. So many thanks ☺️"
