I repointed the ridge tiles couple of weeks ago, next week I am going to replace some Marley Moderns from 1971. Not cracked but eroded from the edges (moss?), crubling away. This channel has been very useful, cheers.
Fabulous job there your a credit to all roofers pal 👍
Lovely streamlined neat pointing work. Really nice work . Alot of really good roofs can be let down by the muck work you've got it spot on. So pleasing to the eye
Great work man !
Bang on lad!!
Nice tidy job mate 👍
I noticed you have used a 3 to 1 mix using just building sand. Some people recommend using a mixture of sharp sand and building. What are your thoughts on that?
I hope that broken tile first course below the ridge got changed lol! Jokes aside bud nice neat work👌🏻 I’m a roofer myself and can appreciate good quality work when I see it. Have you ever thought about/heard of using ridge clamps/runners? Much easier mate don’t have to keep dragging them along get them set and you can’t go wrong! Not judging ya buddy just constructive criticism, but we all have our own ways it’s down to personal preference!
What's your mix ratio and what type of sand? Is it agood idea to damp the tiles and ridge before applying the mortar? Especially if its a baking hot day. I often use a few drops of washing up liquid in a mix and also on my damping spray. I have also (on my sons1930's semi roof) blasted a bit of expanding foam into gaps under ridges that need pointing but are not loose. That stuff sticks anything to anything and my aim was to future proof against the tiles coming loose
Nice
The boys that bedded them on was site boys, it came off so easily because it wasn't proper sand and cement mix it was lamitex
How did you get broken tiles ?
Why do you put broken tiles on top of the mortar?
Are those 3rd round on the ridge
how come no saddle?
