Why Choose Us for Rebedding in Lesmurdie?
Rebedding is relaying the mortar under your tiles, and up here it's critical because Lesmurdie's pointing fails from moisture constantly. Once pointing cracks or crumbles, water gets underneath the tiles and the whole roof starts failing faster. We use advanced flexible pointing material that handles constant damp and temperature swings without cracking again in a year. Standard pointing can't cope with this climate. A typical rebedding job costs $3,000 to $6,000 depending on roof size and condition. We don't just replace the pointing, we seal the tile surface to stop moisture soaking into porous material. The flexible pointing stays intact through Lesmurdie's temperature swings and extreme rainfall, so you're not back up on the roof next winter. This job feels expensive but saves your roof structure from water damage.
Lesmurdie's extreme moss growth lifts tiles 10-20mm off the batten, breaking the seal and allowing water underneath. Rebedding replaces the mortar bed under tiles, re-securing them flush. Moss pressure is incredible at upper escarpment elevations, with severe coverage common. Heavy-duty surface sealing during rebedding prevents deep moisture penetration into porous tiles. Rebedding on a Lesmurdie roof is measured and quoted separately. Advanced moisture-resistant flexible bedding is essential here, not standard mortar.

Local Lesmurdie Expertise
Lesmurdie's elevated escarpment position - around 270m above sea level, with higher rainfall than the coastal plain - creates the most extreme roofing challenges in metropolitan Perth. Annual rainfall typically 1000-1300mm against Perth's ~730mm, significantly cooler temperatures, dense native bushland, and dramatic elevation variations promote severe moss growth and moisture issues. At Roof Restorers Perth, we've restored roofs across Lesmurdie and upper Perth Hills with 15+ years of team experience, specializing in extreme moss treatment and high-rainfall management for Perth's highest residential properties.
The result: Roofs that withstand Lesmurdie's extreme conditions for 15+ years, preventing the massive moss proliferation and moisture damage common in upper hills properties.

Benefits of Rebedding for Lesmurdie 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 Lesmurdie
- 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.

Why are my roof tiles lifting if the pointing looks okay? ▾
Moss underneath. Lesmurdie's extreme moss growth creates thick mats under tiles, pushing them up 10-20mm. This happens even with decent pointing because moss gets under the tile itself. Rebedding (resetting tiles on new mortar) is necessary after moss treatment to reseal tiles and prevent water entry. Rebedding on a Lesmurdie roof is measured and quoted separately.
Is rebedding enough, or do I need new tiles? ▾
Depends on tile damage. Most Lesmurdie tiles survive moss pressure and just need rebedding. Broken or severely porous tiles get replaced (included in restoration costs). Rebedding with advanced moisture-resistant mortar prevents water soaking into tiles going forward. It's a critical step after moss treatment, not optional in upper hills conditions.
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.
