Dry Verge and Ridge Systems Installation
The peak of your roof features ridge and hip tiles, which traditionally were fitted using a cement mortar method across the top of your roof. An increasingly popular choice amongst professionals and developers is dry verge and ridge systems, this is primarily because of the many benefits it provides:
- It is more reliable than the traditional mortar method, which as a result means it has now become the standard requirement throughout the UK.
- It is more weather-proof and durable and less likely to have issues that are more commonly found to occur when the cement mortar application is used.
- Better ventilation to the roof, meaning the integrity of the roof structure is less vulnerable to condensation forming, causing wood-rot and other problems.
- Little to no maintenance is required.
As a direct result of the undeniable benefits of using dry verge and ridge systems, we always recommend replacing damaged roofs with this newer method, as this will ultimately protect your roof better and for longer.
