Ridge and Hip Tile Quote

[datarebal]

At what point should you re bed the tiles? If the mortar between is breaking up but the tiles are still solid is it OK to re point them?

Pointing is not ok, in fact a waste of time

Thank all for your replies. Now seen a couple of roofers and have been offered different opinions of what to do:

1. Ventilated ridge and hips (all dry)
2. Ventilated ridge and wet hips.

I definitely want to go with a ventilated ridge.

Appreciate opinions on what is the right way to go?

Properly fitted wet ridge and hips with mechanical fixings . Imo is best. How ever the guys offering wet hips and vented ridge sound ok, based on the fact you have a non breathable felt a bit of venting is never bad.
Which ever you choose screw fixing everything.
How were the quotes compared to the 7000

Still awaiting the quotes.

A ventilated ridge and hip on a roof that is not otherwise ventilated, or designed to be ventilated, offers no benefit.

No eaves/ soffit vents and those dormers = no through ventilation anyway.

Type 1f felt , ridge venting is always a plus.
Warm moist air rises .
But I'd bed them all
