Why Choose Us for Rebedding in Hillarys?
Ridge capping and roof edges come loose when coastal winds and salt-induced movement crack the bedding mortar underneath. Northern corridor storms with 50-70km/h gusts can lift entire ridge sections if the bedding's weak, and water gets in behind the cap. Rebedding means pulling the cap, clearing old mortar, and resetting with flexible coastal-grade bedding that moves with the temperature changes without cracking. Most repointing jobs on Hillarys roofs run $2,500 to $4,200 depending on the roof size and complexity. We use bedding that handles the salt air and wind stress better than traditional mortar, so the ridge stays put through the winter storms. It's one of the jobs we see most often in the coastal homes, and it's worth doing early before wind lift causes bigger water damage inside.
Rebedding means resetting mortar under ridge capping and hip tiles that have lifted or shifted. Hillarys wind storms, especially from West Coast Drive corridor, lift capping regularly. Loose capping lets water in and accelerates interior rot. We reset capping with flexible coastal-grade mortar that moves with thermal cycling rather than cracking. Most jobs cost $1,500-2,800.

Benefits of Rebedding for Hillarys 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 Hillarys
- 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 do I know if my ridge capping needs rebedding? ▾
If capping rocks when you look at it, or mortar is missing or cracked, rebedding is due. Northern corridor wind storms lift capping loose. You'll sometimes see daylight under a loose ridge. Rebedding costs $1,500-2,800 and prevents water entry worth thousands in repairs.
What's the difference between rebedding and repointing? ▾
Rebedding lifts and resets tiles or capping into new mortar. Repointing fills gaps between tiles or capping with new mortar without lifting them. Rebedding is stronger for loose capping, especially in Hillarys' windy conditions. Most homes need both.
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.
