Dry Ridge Roofing
Dry Ridge Systems
Traditional ridge and verge tiles are bedded in mortar. Over the years that mortar cracks, washes out and lets the tiles work loose, which is one of the most common reasons we get called out after a windy spell.
A dry ridge system fixes each ridge and hip tile mechanically with a union and a screw into a secured batten, with a breathable roll underneath. Dry verge does the same job along the gable ends, and dry valleys replace mortar pointed valleys.
We fit dry systems on new roofs as standard where they suit the roof, and we can retrofit them to an existing tiled or slate roof when the ridge or verge needs re-bedding.
