Best Roofing and Restorations rated 5/5
The Caps at the Top Do the Hardest Job
The ridge caps run along the very top and hips of the roof, sealing the join where two roof faces meet. They're the most exposed tiles on the whole roof, and when the bedding and pointing holding them down let go, they crack, work loose and can be lifted clean off in a strong Peninsula wind.
A loose or missing cap is an open gap right at the peak of the roof — exactly where you don't want water getting in.

We repair or replace cracked and dislodged caps, re-bed any that have come loose, and repoint the line with flexible pointing so the whole ridge is solid and watertight again. Where a cap is broken beyond use, we match a replacement as closely as the roof allows.
It's a repair we carry out constantly on older Peninsula homes, and on many roofs it's the single fix that stops the leaks. Often done as part of a full restoration.

Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on how many caps are affected and whether the whole ridge needs re-bedding and repointing or just a few caps put right. We give you a clear price after a look, at no charge.
Yes. We replace dislodged and missing caps, matching them as closely as the roof allows, and re-bed and repoint so they don't come off again. If it's storm damage covered by insurance, we can document it too.
Because they're the most exposed tiles on the roof and rely on bedding and pointing that wears out over time. When that fails, gaps open at the peak of the roof and water gets straight in.
If it's just the ridge caps and the rest of the roof is sound, a targeted repair does the job. If the pointing is failing everywhere and the tiles are tired, a restoration is often better value. We'll tell you honestly.
