Roof Rebedding in Sydney

When the traditional mortar on your Sydney roof starts deteriorating or is beyond salvage, roof rebedding becomes essential. “Bedding” refers to the adhesive blend that anchors the ridge cap tiles in place. This compound, primarily made of sand and cement, tends to weaken or get dislodged over time. Factors such as house settling, temperature fluctuations causing roof expansion and contraction can be culprits.
