Why Choose Us for Rebedding in Langford?
Ridge caps and hip caps on 40 to 50 year old Langford homes are bedded on mortar that's now failing. The caps sit loose, water gets between cap and tile, and the mortar underneath has split into pieces. You'll see gaps along the ridge line and caps rocking if wind pushes them. Rebedding means lifting each cap, cleaning out old mortar, and resetting on fresh compound that flexes with temperature movement. It's essential work on aging Langford tile roofs because loose caps let rain penetrate faster than almost any other roof fault. Most homes need a few to all the caps rebedded when we do comprehensive repointing.
Ridge and hip caps in Langford's 40-50 year old homes are often held by original mortar that's lost cohesion and flexibility. Rebedding replaces failed mortar with flexible compound that moves with seasonal temperature changes. Original rigid mortar cracks, water enters underneath, and the whole ridge becomes unstable. Rebedding stops this cycle and locks ridge caps down securely. It's one of the most important elements in Langford's aging housing stock.

Benefits of Rebedding for Langford 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 Langford
- 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 does rebedding mean and why do I need it? ▾
Rebedding replaces failed mortar holding ridge and hip caps with flexible compound that moves with heat and cold. Original 1970s-1980s mortar cracks from age, letting water underneath and destabilising the ridge. Without rebedding, caps loosen and water damage spreads into your roof cavity.
Is rebedding expensive compared to full restoration? ▾
Rebedding is included in full roof restoration packages. If you need just ridge caps rebedded without full restoration, we quote separately. Most Langford homes benefit from comprehensive repointing of all ridge and hip caps when the roof is accessible for other work.
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
"Carlo Poli gave Roof Restorers Perth 5 stars."
"Roof Restorers Perth - Ryan - was very professional, and on time. He worked very hard, and cleaned up after himself to the delight of my husband. The results speak for themselves, and in fact, a neighbour who was passing by commented on how good the roof looked after Ryan had finished. I highly recommend him."
