Repointing your ridge tiles: the roof repair most homeowners don't know they need. π
The ridge runs along the very top of your roof. It's sealed in place with mortar -- and over time, that mortar cracks, crumbles, and fails. When it does, water gets in at the highest and most exposed point of the roof.
Signs yours might need attention:
β Visible cracks in the mortar between ridge tiles
β Ridge tiles that look uneven or slightly shifted
β Moss growing specifically along the ridge line
β Water marks near the top of upstairs walls or ceilings
Ridge tile repointing is one of the most cost-effective repairs we carry out. We re-bed and repoint using modern materials built for coastal exposure -- and if required, we can switch to a dry-ridge system that eliminates the mortar issue altogether.
We cover Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth, Swanage and across Dorset.
