Dry ridge and dry verge in Holbeach

Mortar is the weak point at the top and edges of most roofs. It cracks with the seasons, it lets water get in behind it, and eventually lumps of it end up in the gutter or on the drive. A dry ridge and dry verge system does away with mortar altogether: every ridge tile and verge unit is mechanically fixed, so there is nothing up there to crack and wash out.

Why we rate dry-fix systems

• No mortar, so no repeat rounds of repointing the ridge
• Mechanically fixed, so ridge tiles are held down in high wind
• A clean, even finish along ridge, hips and verges
• One job that ends the cycle of patching the same mortar

Fitted on its own or as part of a re-roof

We fit dry ridge and dry verge as a job in its own right, and we build it into full re-roofs as standard: our recent photographed re-roof was finished with dry-fix ridge and hips. One customer had a complete dry ridge and verge system installed after we sat down and went through what it would actually do for their roof. That is how we like to sell it, by explaining it rather than pushing it.

A sensible fix for Holbeach roofs

Around Holbeach the housing runs from older clay pantile cottages to bungalows and new estate homes, and cracked ridge mortar turns up on all of them. If you keep paying to have the same ridge repointed, fixing it mechanically once is worth a conversation.
