Why Choose Us for Roof Repointing in Armadale?
Repointing is where we replace failed mortar between tiles, the horizontal lines you see running across your roof. In Armadale's heat, mortar fails faster than coastal suburbs because the expansion and contraction cycles happen so often and so hard. Concrete tile roofs that are 40 to 50 years old have widespread mortar separation and cracking. We use a flexible, heat-resistant pointing compound that handles the thermal stress instead of cracking like the original mortar. On a typical single-storey home, full repointing with cap re-bedding runs $2,500 to $4,500. Once it's done, your roof holds together properly, sheds water cleanly, and you've got real protection for the next decade.
Repointing in Armadale is different from coastal work. Standard mortar cracks under Armadale's thermal cycling because substrate expands at different rates. Flexible, heat-resistant pointing compounds are essential, allowing slight movement without fracturing. Most Armadale homes need full repointing every 15-20 years versus 25-30 in milder climates. The payback is enormous because failed pointing is the entry point for 80 percent of roof leaks.

Benefits of Roof Repointing for Armadale Properties
Stops the leaks before they start
Cracked, crumbling pointing is how water gets under your ridge caps and into the roof. Repointing seals those joins back up and keeps the weather out.
Flexible pointing that lasts
We use flexible pointing compound, not the old rigid cement mortar that cracks the first time the roof moves. It flexes with the tiles through Perth's hot-cold cycles instead of splitting.
Cheaper than a restoration
If the tiles are sound and only the pointing has gone, repointing fixes the actual problem for a fraction of what a full restoration costs.
Tidies up the roofline
Fresh, even pointing in a colour that suits the roof makes the whole house look cared for, which matters if you're selling.
Our Roof Repointing Process in Armadale
- 1
Inspect the ridges
We get up and check every ridge and hip cap, the bedding under them and the existing pointing, and tell you what's actually failed.
Why it matters: Sometimes it's just pointing, sometimes the bedding underneath has gone too.
- 2
Rake out the old pointing
The cracked and loose pointing is raked out back to sound material so the new compound has something solid to key into.
Why it matters: New pointing over crumbling old pointing just fails again.
- 3
Re-bed where needed
If the mortar bed under a ridge cap has broken down, we re-bed the cap properly before pointing. Pointing alone won't hold a cap that's sitting on failed bedding.
Why it matters: The bedding holds the cap, the pointing seals it.
- 4
Apply flexible pointing
Flexible pointing compound goes on in a clean, even line, colour-matched to the roof.
Why it matters: Flexible compound moves with the roof and stays sealed.

Why does my roof's pointing look good visually but water still gets in? ▾
Hairline cracks invisible to the eye open and close with thermal cycling. What looks solid is actually letting water in. Coastal properties sometimes get away with pointing that looks okay, but Armadale's heat means you need to be proactive.
How much does repointing cost on an Armadale roof? ▾
Full repointing typically runs $2,500 to $4,500 depending on roof size and complexity. It's often packaged with roof cleaning and tile replacement as part of full restoration, which spreads labour costs.
How much does roof repointing cost in Perth? ▾
It depends on how many ridge and hip caps the roof has, how much bedding needs redoing, and access. Call 08 6388 4492 or request a quote for a fixed price on your roof. Repointing is far cheaper than a full restoration when the tiles themselves are still good.
What's the difference between repointing and rebedding? ▾
Bedding is the mortar bed the ridge cap sits on. Pointing is the flexible compound that seals the join on top. Rebedding relets the cap on fresh mortar; repointing seals it. A cap with failed bedding needs both, and we'll tell you which yours needs.
How long does repointing last? ▾
Flexible pointing applied over sound bedding typically lasts 10 to 15 years or more. The old rigid cement pointing it replaces often cracks within a couple of years because it can't move with the roof.
Do I need repointing or a full restoration? ▾
If the tiles are sound and only the pointing and bedding have failed, repointing fixes it for much less. If tiles are cracked and the roof's faded too, a restoration makes more sense. We'll give you a straight answer after we look.
Can you match the pointing colour to my roof? ▾
Yes. Flexible pointing comes in a range of colours, so we match it to the tiles for a clean, consistent look.
