Why Choose Us for Rebedding in Midvale?
Ridge caps and hip caps on Midvale's 1970s-1980s roofs sit on mortar that's 40 years old and cracking. This mortar fails because the foothills thermal cycling cracks it repeatedly and the weight of the cap presses it apart. Once it cracks, water runs under the cap and into the timber below. We rebid ridges and hips with flexible compound built to move with thermal stress instead of cracking. This is often part of a full restoration, but on solid roofs that just need cap work, we do it as a standalone job. It stops water entry and prevents much bigger problems below.
Rebedding replaces the mortar under ridge and hip caps where the original has cracked and separated. On Midvale roofs, this is critical. Forty-year-old mortar has been through hundreds of thermal cycles and fails predictably. We rebed with flexible compound designed for foothills temperature swings rather than rigid mortar. It's part of a full restoration but can also be done on its own for roofs that are otherwise sound.

Local Midvale Expertise
Benefits of Rebedding for Midvale 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 Midvale
- 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.

My ridge cap is cracked and separating. Is this a quick fix or a bigger job? ▾
Rebedding the ridge is a substantial job, not a quick fix. It involves removing the ridge cap, replacing the mortar, and resetting the cap. For a single-storey home with one ridge, expect $1,500 to $2,500. If the roof is 40 years old, other areas likely need it too.
What's the difference between rebedding and repointing? ▾
Rebedding is under the ridge cap itself. Repointing is the joints between tiles. Both fail on aging roofs but rebedding addresses the bigger structural failure under the caps where most water sneaks in.
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.
