Repointing Ridge Tiles and Chimneys in Wexford
Our specialized repointing service operating in Wexford focuses on re-bedding and repointing the mortar that secures your ridge tiles, hips, and chimney. These are the components of your roof that bear the brunt of the harsh Irish weather conditions and are most prone to damage.
Over time, the mortar bedding that underlies the ridge and hip tiles deteriorates due to exposure to rain, frost, and wind. When this mortar cracks and falls away, the ridge tiles become loose, posing a potential hazard to people and property during intense Atlantic storms.
Our process involves removing the deteriorated mortar to a sound depth and re-bedding or repointing with a new, properly mixed mortar. This procedure ensures the ridge line is once again sturdy and resistant to weather conditions.
Our repointing service encompasses:
- Re-bedding of loose ridge and hip tiles using a fresh bed of mortar
- Repointing of ridge lines, hips, and verges where the mortar has chipped or fallen away
- Repointing and re-launching chimneys around the pots and crown
- Replacement of any ridge tiles that are cracked or too damaged to reuse
- All work is inspected and photographed, providing you with a visual confirmation of the completed job without needing to climb up
Issues that require repointing are often identified during a roof clean. Early detection and remediation are significantly more cost-effective than repairing storm damage at a later stage.
Besides offering repointing services in Wexford, we also provide minor roof repairs and comprehensive roof restoration services.
