Professional Ridge Tile and Chimney Repointing in Kilkenny
At Kilkenny, we offer a thorough repointing service that repositions and repoints the mortar that secures your ridge tiles, hips and chimney — the part of the roof that endures the harshest of Irish weather and is the first to fail.
Over time, the mortar bedding beneath ridge and hip tiles deteriorates due to rain, frost and wind. When it splits and falls away, ridge tiles become unsteady, and a loose ridge tile in a tempest from the Atlantic poses a risk to people and property below.
We meticulously remove the deteriorated mortar to a sound depth and re-bed or repoint it with a fresh, correctly mixed mortar, rendering the ridge line stable and weatherproof once more.
Our comprehensive repointing service includes:
- Re-bedding of unstable ridge and hip tiles on a new mortar bed
- Repointing of ridge lines, hips and verges where the mortar has split or dropped out
- Repointing and re-launching chimneys around the pots and crown
- Substitution of any ridge tiles that are fractured or beyond repair
- Every job is inspected and photographed, allowing you to see the completed work without stepping off the ground
Repointing is often detected during a roof cleaning session. Addressing it early on is far more cost-effective than mending storm damage afterwards.
In addition to repointing in Kilkenny, we also provide minor roof repairs and full roof restorations.
