Why Choose Us for Roof Repointing in Bentley?
Repointing is the ridge line work, and it's critical on Bentley's 1960s-1970s homes where original mortar is completely deteriorated after 50-plus years. Water seeps behind ridge caps once mortar fails, and then your roof cavity rots. We rake out crumbling old mortar and repoint with flexible polymer-modified mortar that won't crack as the roof expands and contracts in the urban heat island environment. Selective repointing usually runs $1,400 to $2,800 depending on roof length and complexity. If your home was built before 1980, professional repointing assessment is part of routine 2-3 year maintenance. Older terracotta tiles on SHC homes need gentle handling and sometimes specialist mortar compounds. Full ridge repointing is included in complete restoration, but targeted work on failing sections saves money and keeps your roof secure.
Bentley's 1960s-1970s brick-and-tile homes have mortar between ridge caps that has completely deteriorated after 50-60 years of thermal movement and exposure. Repointing with polymer-modified mortar, not old-fashioned cement, restores flexibility and water resistance. At $1,400-$2,800 for selective repointing, it's a critical investment. Assessment every 2-3 years catches deterioration early, avoiding massive water damage.

Benefits of Roof Repointing for Bentley 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 Bentley
- 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.
Roof Repointing in Bentley - FAQs
Do you provide roof repointing in Bentley? ▾

Why does mortar fail on Bentley's concrete tile roofs? ▾
Fifty to sixty years of thermal movement, plus Bentley's urban heat island adding 2-3 extra degrees daily, crack traditional mortar. Modern polymer-modified mortar flexes with this movement and lasts longer.
How much is repointing on a Bentley roof? ▾
Selective repointing usually runs $1,400 to $2,800 depending on extent of deterioration. Full repointing on a standard single-storey home might be included in an $8,000-$10,800 restoration. Get a site assessment.
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.
What Our Customers Say
"I have recently had a full roof restoration completed by this company and I can't recommend them highly enough. The job entailed cleaning the old terracotta coloured clay tiles, replacing damaged ones (I didn't have spares so extras were provided), fixing/replacing ridge capping etc. then sealing and painting to a gorgeous charcoal colour. All for a VERY reasonable price. I am always nervous about engaging tradies for major projects as I have not had much luck in the past. Ryan and Jack at Roof Restorers Perth have completely restored my faith that there are great companies and tradespeople out there. Ryan's communication was spot on, responding promptly to all my emails and questions. Jack, who completed the work over two days, was a delight and went above and beyond with customer service and communication, making sure I was happy with the clean up on both days and also ensuring my neighbours were happy. Nothing was too much trouble for him and I now have a functioning tiled roof that looks incredible."
"The overall experience dealing with the Roof Restorers was excellent. Ryan was very flexible in coordinating the job and dealing with the unreliable weather. Jack was very professional and explained every step of the project and kept us informed on the progress. He was always on time and was articulate in cleaning the roof, repairing areas, including the ridge caps and then restoring the paintwork. We are happy with the final result. I'm very confident in recommending this company. 👍👍👍👍👍"
