Why Choose Us for Rebedding in Gosnells?
Ridge caps and hip caps on tile roofs are held down with mortar. After 40, 50, or 60 years, that mortar cracks, separates, and falls out. Water gets in underneath. Rebedding means we remove the old broken mortar, check the cap itself for cracks, and bed it back in with flexible pointing compound that moves with the roof when it heats and cools. This is crucial on Gosnells homes because the heat cycling from 40-plus degree days is brutal on rigid old mortar. If the cap is cracked, we replace it. If the cap is sound, we just re-bed it. It's not a quick job but it stops water getting into the roof frame. Most Gosnells homes need the whole ridge and hips re-bedded around every 5 to 7 years as the mortar progressively fails.
Ridge caps and hip caps on 1960s-1980s Gosnells roofs sit on cracked mortar that's been failing for years. Rebedding means removing old mortar, replacing it with flexible compound, and resetting the caps. This is critical work because failed mortar allows water entry at the highest points of the roof. Rebedding 40 to 50 metre roofs typically takes a day or two. It's often the key to stopping leaks in aging Gosnells homes.

Benefits of Rebedding for Gosnells 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 Gosnells
- 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.

What exactly is rebedding and why does my 1970s Gosnells roof need it? ▾
Rebedding is replacing the mortar under ridge and hip caps with flexible pointing compound. Mortar cracks over 40-50 years, letting water in. Rebedding prevents this. It's a standard part of tile roof restoration in Gosnells because the mortar fails with age.
Can you rebead my ridge caps without doing the full restoration? ▾
Yes, rebedding can be done as a standalone service if tiles and pointing are otherwise sound. Most Gosnells homes benefit from pairing rebedding with cleaning and coating for full protection. Cost sits around $2,500 to $4,500 depending on roof size.
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.
