Ridge Capping Brisbane
Ridge Capping in Brisbane
Ridge capping is the backbone of a safe and sound roof because that’s exactly what holds your tiles, seals out water, and also prevents movements caused by scary storms and extreme weather conditions. Over time, the mortar can crack or loosen, which marks the beginning of your roofing problem.

Our licensed roofers offer a wide range of residential and commercial roofing services, including roof leak repairs, fascia repairs, skylight repairs, and whirlybird repairs and installations, tile roof repairs, roof restorations, ridge capping, roof cleaning and painting, and terracotta roof restoration.
For homes needing larger upgrades, we provide roof replacement and re-roofing services, along with metal and Colorbond roof repairs and restoration. Our team also handles gutter and downpipe repairs and installations.
Each project is completed using Australian-made materials designed for local climate conditions and is backed by our 5-year workmanship guarantee and 15-year product warranties.

The whole experience was very positive from start to finish. Greg was great to deal with, very thorough quotation, as was his communication and advice. The whole roofing team are friendly and very helpful. The site, each day was left safe and tidy. We were more then pleased with the end result. I would definitely recommend Munro roofing team to anyone in the future.
The whole process of cleaning our roof went pretty smoothly. The finished roof is looking wonderful and our cleaning guy worked tirelessly the whole day. He cleaned up all of the front and back yards very well. We had one bit of a leak into the roof space which unfortunately landed on a bathroom light fitting and fused it but not the end of the world. We expected a couple of ‘leaks’ with a day of high pressure washing. As I say, our roof now looks great with no lichen or marks, but this work is NOT cheap. Expect to pay a lot for such results 👍. Yes, I’d use Munro again.
Quick response by Greg and the boys had the job done within a week. It was only a small job but they still took it serious and helped us out. Thanks heaps.
Because the Strongest Roofs Start at the Top
Keep Water Out Before It Becomes a Problem
Cracks in ridge capping might seem harmless, but they let water in leading to leaks, rot, and damaged insulation. Fixing them early keeps your roof sealed tight, your ceilings dry, and your home protected through every season.
Strengthen the Roof You Already Have
You don’t need a brand-new roof to restore strength. Repointing and rebedding ridge caps reinforces the structure you already own, tightening every joint and locking each tile securely in place for years of reliable protection.
Create a Healthier, Happier Living Space
Leaky ridge lines can allow moisture to seep in, leading to mould, dampness, and musty air. Restoring your ridge capping helps keep your home dry and breathable, creating a healthier environment for your family to live and rest in.

Our Process For Ridge Capping
- Call us at 0455 508 222 to schedule your ridge capping inspection or repair. Our licensed roofers will arrive at your chosen time with all the tools and equipment needed to get the job done right.
- Once on-site, we carry out a full ridge line inspection to identify loose, cracked, or missing mortar, checking the bedding and pointing to see how well your ridge tiles are secured.
- Before we touch anything, you’ll get a clear, itemised quote that explains exactly what needs doing, what materials we’ll use, and what it’ll cost.
- When you give us the go-ahead, we begin by carefully removing any deteriorated bedding or pointing without disturbing surrounding tiles.
- Our roofers then re-bed the ridge tiles on a fresh, high-strength mortar base to restore stability and alignment, followed by flexible pointing compounds that expand and contract with Brisbane’s temperature changes.
- We use only Australian-made materials engineered for Queensland’s heat, storms, and humidity.
- Every roof leak repair is backed by a 5-year workmanship guarantee and 15-year product warranties.

FAQs
Ridge capping is the layer of tiles or metal that covers the peak (or ridge) where two roof surfaces meet. It’s what gives your roof a clean, finished look while sealing the joints between tiles. Without proper ridge capping, rain, debris, and even pests can slip through those gaps and cause leaks or damage inside your roof cavity.
The ridge cap’s main job is to keep your roof watertight and stable. It seals the highest points of your roof, preventing water and wind from sneaking underneath the tiles. It also holds everything firmly in place, especially during Brisbane’s heavy storms, and gives your roof that neat, polished edge you see from the street.
The ridge is the very top line where two sides of a pitched roof meet. It’s a structural part of your roof that connects and supports both sides. The ridge allows for proper water flow and ventilation while giving your roof its strength and shape. The ridge capping is what protects this area from the elements.
The angle of ridge capping depends on your roof’s pitch, or how steep it is. Most Australian homes have ridge caps set between 15° and 45°, but every roof is different. Roofers custom-fit ridge caps to match your specific roof angle, ensuring a snug, watertight seal that lasts through heat, humidity, and storms
