Roof Repointing Logan

What Is Roof Re-Pointing?

The ridge caps along the peaks and hips of your roof are held down by a bed of mortar. Over the years, Logan’s sun, storms and driving rain crack and wash that mortar out. Re-pointing is the process of cutting out the old, failed pointing and applying a flexible compound that reseals and locks those ridge caps back in place.

Where the ridge caps themselves have come loose because the underlying bed has perished, we re-bed them first — lifting each cap and resetting it into fresh mortar before re-pointing over the top.

We’ll inspect your Logan roof and recommend exactly what it needs — a straight re-point, or a full re-bed and re-point — nothing more, nothing less.

Logan-Wide Tile Roof Re-Pointing

A Recent Logan Re-Pointing Job

We were recently called out to a terracotta tile roof in Slacks Creek where the homeowner had noticed a damp patch on the hallway ceiling after a storm. The ridge-cap pointing had cracked and lifted along two hips, and a tiled valley had silted up and started backing water under the tiles.

We cut out the failed mortar, re-bedded the loose caps, applied flexible pointing colour-matched to the terracotta, then cleared and re-sealed the valley to get the water running where it should. One tidy visit, photos before and after, and a roof that’s watertight again.

FAQs – Roof Re-Pointing in Logan

How do I know if my Logan roof needs re-pointing?
Signs include visible cracks in the ridge-cap mortar, caps shifting or lifting, mortar grit in the gutters, or leaks during heavy rain. If you’re unsure, we’ll inspect it and let you know.

Do you re-bed ridge caps as well?
Yes — if the bed under the ridge caps has failed, we’ll re-bed them in fresh mortar before re-pointing.

How long does re-pointing last?
Flexible pointing compounds can last 10–15 years or more when properly applied. We always use quality materials to ensure a long-lasting result.

Do you work with terracotta as well as concrete tiles?
Yes — we re-point both, and colour-match the pointing so it blends with terracotta and concrete ridge capping alike.

Will you check the rest of the roof while you’re there?
Yes — we’ll look over valleys, flashings and tiles for any other issues and give you an honest report.
