Leaking tile roofing repair - leaking ridge capping on a terracotta tile roof
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
The 3 steps to repairing a leak we found on a Sydney Western Suburbs terracotta tile roof:
1) Find the leak.
2) Re-bed the ridge capping with weep holes. Prepare the ridge capping for re-pointing.
3) Re-point the ridge caps with flexible pointing compound - ensuring the weep holes are re-instated.

That intro was magnificent.
Well done! I know many home builders and renovators will find this useful
Thank you Jack and your team, your videos are the best and most "tradworthy" I have seen. My father was an old builder who started back in the 50's & you remind me of him ie: straight up, professional, no bull & know your trade (VERY rare these days). The weep holes are something new to me, as I was taught the basic bedding and pointing with 3:1 cement. I live south of Sydney & hope to use your services in the near future.
Now here is a craftsman. Excellent repair with all the technical explanations. Consider removing or lowering the volume of the background music
Cheers ! Good video . Thanks for sharing the information.
Thanks for sharing this, very helpful.
Useful information in the video but once you start talking you should turn off the music - it just gets in the way.
Would have been good to show how you made the weep holes. Maybe in a future video. Anyway the demo is much appreciated! Thank you. The music is a bit loud, maybe turn it down by half.
unique looking tiles.
Storyteller230, although these terracotta tiles don't need weep holes because of their design, weep holes MUST be installed on other profiles tiles as per Australian Standards. 28 years in construction and still ignoring the Standards... This is a requirement, not a fashion.
Really good video, thanks. I have roof with a little water coming in the ridge (UK). I was wondering if re-pointing helps or does it just prevent water running out? Then I found your video with weep holes. I want these. How did you make them? poke through after, or put a dowel in the mortar and pull it out?
Why is everyone complaining about the music? What music?
the weep holes sound like a good idea but i wonder if all the holes are actually open. I assume you just poked a pen sized object through.
How much price cost
this is a great vid, but I need you to come fix mine I cant get up on the roof i might fall. Do you have a number? I am at Roselands Sydney
12 THRITH ST …. COLYTON …. LOOK AT THAT ROOF …. COST ME HEAPS … USE THESE GUYS HIGHLY RECOMEMENTED
Music is a little annoying.. could be lower volume. ;)
Such an ASIAN background music... lol!

Well thought out technical explanation but the instrumental music in the background is too obtrusive and virtually overwhelms your dialogue.
It is not just a tile that has been cut short-- It is a POOR Roofing crews and lazy install. If the roof WAS Sqaure beforehand--maybe but they stairstepped the tiles because the rows were not evenly space.on the failed batten lay. Secondly they last row at the top near the ridge had multiplied their errors by perhaps a foot over the run, These roofs should have venting at the ridge in most areas and a better cap type. Bedding is a problem created by poor mixes and too low a slope, and too narrow a covering.
Cant watch this, the music is too annoying.

Can't stand your comment : too annoyingly cry-babyingly unappreciative of perfectly good free information .
best in SYDNEYGUYS ARE THE BEST ….
Me too. The music is VERY ANNOYING.
Your music drowns out your voice and makes your vocal presentation useless.
Suicidal music
