Roof bedding is a crucial process in maintaining the structural integrity and aesthetic appeal of your roof, especially for terracotta tiles. It involves applying a solid mortar base to secure ridge capping tiles. Over time, the bedding can degrade due to exposure to weather elements, leading to potential issues such as loose tiles and water leaks.
Structural Integrity:- Proper bedding ensures that the ridge caps are securely held in place, providing stability to the roof structure. It helps in preventing the tiles from shifting or becoming dislodged, which can lead to significant roof damage.
Weather Protection:- Effective bedding creates a strong barrier against harsh weather conditions, including heavy rain, wind, and extreme temperatures. It prevents water ingress, which can cause leaks and water damage inside your home.
Aesthetic Appeal:- Well-maintained bedding enhances the visual appeal of your roof, ensuring it looks neat and well-kept. It maintains the classic, timeless appearance of terracotta roof tiles
Thorough Inspection:- We begin with a detailed inspection of your roof to assess the condition of the existing bedding and identify areas that need attention. This step ensures that all issues are identified, and a comprehensive repair plan is developed.
Careful Removal of Old Mortar:- The deteriorated or damaged mortar is carefully removed to prevent any damage to the surrounding tiles.
This process is crucial to ensure a clean and stable base for the new bedding.
Application of Fresh Mortar:- We use high-quality mortar to lay a fresh, solid base for the ridge caps. The new bedding provides a secure foundation, ensuring the ridge caps are firmly in place.
Precise Repointing:- After the new bedding is applied, we use premium Dulux pointing or Supa pointing compounds for repointing. This flexible, weather-resistant sealant accommodates slight movements in the tiles, reducing the risk of cracks and ensuring long-lasting protection.
Final Inspection and Quality Assurance:- A final inspection is conducted to ensure that the bedding and repointing work meet our high standards. We ensure that your roof is in optimal condition and ready to withstand the elements.
