Why Choose Us for Rebedding in Woodvale?
Ridge capping on a 40-year-old Woodvale home sits on mortar that's cracked and crumbling. The tiles have moved, the mortar has shrunk, and water finds its way underneath. Rebedding means removing old mortar and replacing it with modern flexible compounds that move with your roof as it expands and contracts. On properties here, ridge cap rebedding is often part of a full restoration. If you're not doing a full restoration, rebedding alone is a good investment. New mortar stops water getting under the ridge caps and creating internal damage. It's not as visible as repainting but it's crucial. We use modern compounds that stay flexible and don't crack like the original cement mortar. Most Woodvale homes benefit from ridge cap rebedding once they're past 35-40 years old.
Rebedding is re-cementing ridge caps and hip lines. Woodvale's 30 to 40 year old roofs have mortar that's crumbling after decades of thermal movement and moisture. We remove old mortar, set new ridge cap tiles, and use flexible modern cement compounds that move with the roof. It stops water getting under the cap and prevents leaks into the roof space.

Benefits of Rebedding for Woodvale 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 Woodvale
- 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.
Rebedding in Woodvale - FAQs

Why does ridge mortar fail on old Woodvale roofs? ▾
Original mortar is brittle and can't handle decades of thermal expansion and contraction. Moisture penetration from humidity cracks it further. After 30-40 years, the cap shifts and mortar crumbles. Modern flexible compounds are far better. Rebedding with new material prevents leaks and is part of full restoration.
Is rebedding expensive compared to full restoration? ▾
Standalone rebedding typically runs 2,500 to 4,000 for the average home. It's included in full roof restoration. If mortar is your main issue and tiles are sound, rebedding alone can extend roof life years without a full restoration. We recommend during inspection.
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.
