Ridge Capping Adelaide

Ridge caps sit at the peak of every tile roof and they fail predictably - the sand-and-cement bedding cracks, pointing flakes off, and caps eventually lift. Modern flexible pointing (typically a polymer-modified product) lasts much longer than traditional rigid cement and handles tile movement properly.

When you need ridge capping

• Ridge caps visibly cracked or sagging
• Pointing has crumbled away
• Caps have lifted at one end
• Roof is 20+ years old and ridges have never been re-bedded

What's included in a proper quote

• Remove all existing ridge caps
• Strip existing sand and cement bedding
• Re-bed each cap with fresh sand and cement
• Re-point with flexible polymer pointing
• Touch-up paint to match existing roof colour where required

Adelaide-specific considerations

Adelaide's temperature swings (5C winter nights to 42C summer days) crack rigid cement pointing within 15-20 years. Flexible pointing handles the movement and is the modern standard.
