What is Rebedding
Rebedding is the initial step where a mortar mix is applied to set the roof tiles or ridge caps firmly in place.
This process maintains the alignment and positioning of tiles, preventing displacement due to wind or rain.
It’s the process of removing the aged cement mortar beneath ridge tiles and repositioning and securing the adjoining ridge caps, ensuring they firmly anchor the roof tiles.
What is Pointing
Pointing (also known as repointing), follows rebedding. It involves the application of a flexible, weatherproof compound over the rebedding mortar. This step seals the joints between tiles, enhancing the roof’s ability to resist water and prevent leaks. This stops moisture intrusion and the, preventing mould and decay.
Together, rebedding and pointing form an essential duo.

Local Insight:
North Shore
The North Shore’s diverse architectural landscape spans Federation homes, Californian bungalows, and modern multi-storey builds, many perched on leafy slopes or ridgetops.
Large roof spans, complex intersecting gables, and heritage features such as chimneys and finials require tailored roofing solutions and precise flashing work.
Tree cover is dense across much of the region, especially in suburbs like Pymble, Wahroonga, and Lindfield, making gutter blockage and damp roof cavities persistent concerns.
Older tiled roofs are common, with underlay deterioration and ridge capping movement frequently contributing to slow leaks.
Access can be challenging due to long driveways, tiered gardens, and limited street frontage, requiring careful planning for maintenance and stormwater control.
