About ridge capping and repointing
The mortar bedding under ridge capping cracks with decades of roof movement, letting caps loosen and water in; it is the single most common tiled-roof failure. Modern repointing uses flexible compound over fresh bedding and outlasts the old rigid mortar by years. Loose caps are also a wind hazard, so this is not a cosmetic job.
Getting quotes in Murputja
Before booking a roofer for ridge capping and repointing, ask whether the price includes GST, callout and materials, and get it in writing. The quoting spread between operators in the same suburb is bigger than most people expect, which is exactly why comparing pays.

Quick answers
Will insurance cover my roof leak?+
Storm damage is generally covered; gradual deterioration, rusted-out gutters and decades-old pointing generally are not. Insurers distinguish a storm-lifted section from long-term wear, and so will their assessor. Photograph damage immediately after the event and keep the roofer's report, because documentation decides marginal claims.
How long does a roof restoration last?+
A quality restoration with proper preparation, rebedding and a two-coat membrane typically lasts 10 to 15 years, and coating warranties in that range are common. Cut-price jobs skimping on preparation fail in two or three. Warranty terms should be written, transferable, and specific about what is covered.
How much do roof repairs cost?+
Minor repairs like a few tiles or a flashing reseal typically run $250 to $600, valley or ridge work $600 to $1,500, and full roof restorations commonly $3,500 to $8,000 depending on size and condition. Gutter replacement is usually quoted per metre, often $30 to $70 installed. Steep or two-storey roofs cost more for the same defect.
