Ridge Tile and Chimney Repointing in Carlow
In Carlow, our repointing service takes care of the mortar holding your ridge tiles, hips, and chimney together. This part of the roof is particularly exposed to the harsh Irish climate, and thus, it’s often the first to fail.
Weather conditions such as rain, frost, and wind gradually degrade the mortar bedding beneath ridge and hip tiles. Once the mortar starts to crack and fall out, ridge tiles can become loose. A loose ridge tile in the midst of an Atlantic storm can pose a real threat to people and properties.
We diligently remove the deteriorated mortar to a sound depth and then re-bed or repoint with fresh, well-mixed mortar. This leaves your ridge line secure and weather-resistant once more.
Our comprehensive repointing service includes:
- Re-bedding of loose ridge and hip tiles using a fresh layer of mortar
- Repointing of ridge lines, hips, and verges where the mortar has been compromised
- Chimney repointing and re-flaunching around the pots and crown
- Replacement of any ridge tiles that are damaged beyond repair
- Thorough checking and photographing of all work, allowing you to see the completed job without needing to climb up
Repointing is often identified during a roof clean, and addressing it early on is significantly more cost-effective than fixing storm damage later on.
In addition to our repointing services in Carlow, we provide minor roof repairs and comprehensive roof restoration.
