Pricing guide

Costs vary mainly with how much tile removal and bedding work is required compared with a straightforward joint repoint. Standard repointing with intact ridge caps is typically much less involved than jobs that need multiple tile replacements, lifting and full re-bedding or sourcing rare matching tiles. Access, scaffold needs and after‑hours attendance can also influence the final quote.

  • Extent of tile removal

    Removing multiple ridge caps for repair or replacement is typically more labour‑intensive than simple joint repointing.

  • Whether rebedding is required

    Full or partial re-bedding of the ridge bedding increases the scope and time compared with surface repointing alone.

  • Tile supply and matching

    Needing replacement caps or rare matching tiles may add time for sourcing and additional materials, which can affect quotes.

  • Access, height and scaffolding

    Single‑storey roofs with ladder access are usually simpler, while higher roofs or steep pitches that need scaffold generally broaden the scope.

  • Timing and after‑hours attendance

    Work scheduled outside normal hours or requiring urgent attendance will typically attract higher hourly or call‑out rates.
