Why Choose Us for Rebedding in Redcliffe?
Ridge capping and hip tiles on 50-70 year old Redcliffe roofs sit in mortar that's crumbled to dust after decades of thermal movement and weather exposure. Rebedding means cutting out that old mortar, cleaning the tile, and resetting it in fresh mortar so water can't seep underneath and cause rot in the timber below. It's not just cosmetic, it's what stops water tracking under the ridge line and soaking into the roof cavity and walls. Thermal movement is brutal on older mortar in this climate. The sun hits the ridge hard during the day, the mortar expands and contracts, and over 50 years it just cracks and falls away. Once that happens, rain finds its way under the ridge tiles and into the roof space. Rebedding is quoted separately from a restoration and sits alongside repointing; it is essential work to keep water out properly.
Rebedding is resetting ridge caps and tiles that have lifted or shifted after decades of thermal movement. Redcliffe roofs from the 1950s-1970s move constantly with heat, and original mortar can't hold anymore. Resetting with modern flexible mortar keeps everything watertight and stops tiles rattling or shifting in wind.

Local Redcliffe Expertise
Redcliffe sits just 9km east of the Perth CBD, positioned between Perth Airport and the Swan River in one of the city's most conveniently located residential pockets. With housing predominantly built during the 1950s-1970s, Redcliffe contains some of the oldest residential roofing stock in the eastern corridor. The suburb's proximity to Perth Airport introduces unique environmental factors including jet fuel residue and industrial particulates, while the nearby Swan River creates elevated humidity in low-lying sections. At Roof Restorers Perth, we've restored roofs across Redcliffe, Belmont, and Cloverdale with 15+ years of team experience, specialising in ageing roof restoration for inner-eastern homes.
The result: Older roofs restored to modern performance standards with 15+ years of protection, transforming tired 50-70 year old roofing into a sound, weatherproof system.

Benefits of Rebedding for Redcliffe 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 Redcliffe
- 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? ▾
It means resetting tiles or ridge caps that have shifted up out of their original position. We remove them, clean the old mortar, reset them with modern flexible mortar that moves with the roof without cracking.
When do I need rebedding rather than just repointing? ▾
If tiles or ridges have visibly lifted or shifted, they need rebedding. If the mortar is just crumbling but everything is still in position, repointing is enough. We identify which during inspection.
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.
