Repointing Specialists

Failed mortar can leave your roof exposed to water damage.

Mortar joints around chimneys, ridge tiles and exposed roof details take a constant battering from wind, rain, frost and temperature changes. Over time, mortar can crack, crumble, pull away or disappear completely.

Home Roofing Company provides careful repointing designed to replace failing mortar and improve weather protection. We remove loose material where needed, prepare the joint properly and finish the repair neatly so it looks right and performs properly.

Common Mortar Problems

Signs you may need repointing.

Repointing is often needed when mortar has weathered enough to weaken the protection around chimneys, ridges or roof edges.

01

Cracked Mortar

Cracks allow water to settle and penetrate exposed joints.

02

Missing Sections

Gaps in mortar leave vulnerable roof details open to rain and frost.

03

Loose Ridge Areas

Ridges can become unstable when the bedding or pointing has failed.

04

Damp Or Leaks

Water ingress around chimneys or ridges can sometimes be caused by failed mortar.
