Maintenance Free Ridge and Verge in Chester-le-Street
Traditional mortar ridge and verge tiles crack and fail under wind uplift and weathering. We install modern, mechanically fixed dry ridge and dry verge systems that eliminate cement entirely and secure your roof edges permanently.
When You Need Maintenance Free Ridge and Verge
Bits of cracked cement are falling from your roof edges onto the ground below. Birds are nesting in your roof verge or apex during spring. High winds have caused ridge tiles to loosen or shift out of alignment. You are tired of paying for recurring mortar re-pointing work every few years.
How We Do It
We strip away all old, failing mortar from your roof ridges and gable ends. We install treated timber battens to create a solid, secure fixing base. We mechanically fix dry ridge unions and interlocking dry verge units in place. We check the entire system for weather resistance and clean up your property completely.
What to Expect
Dry ridge and verge upgrades are usually completed in just 1 day with zero mess and immediate weather protection.
