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.
