We carry out all verge and ridge maintenance.
Traditional verges are mortar based and, over time the weather takes its toll and causes the mortar to crack and crumble. Birds also take advantage of this and make the holes bigger to allow for nesting. Any holes in the mortar allows for water ingress, which in turn causes problems.We remove the old mortar and replace with new to stabilise the edges of the roof tihe constant repair bills.
Ridge tiles can be re-bedded, they will eventually loosen due to the weather.
Removing the old mortar and re-bedding the ridge tiles will stabilise them.
We can upgrade to the new dry roofing products which have more advantages, and no maintenance.
The new dry roofing products are weatherproof, and also allow for the natural movement of the building, which mortar does not.
Dry ridges are mechanically secured and allow for ventilation to help prevent condensation.
