Why Choose Us?

How Our Mechanical Ridge Fixing Process Works

Unlike traditional methods that rely on mortar—which naturally cracks and degrades over time—a dry ridge system physically secures the tiles to your roof. The process begins with our team safely stripping away any failing cement and undertaking your ridge tile replacement. Because we manage all our own scaffolding and waste clearance in-house, you will never have to worry about coordinating multiple contractors or dealing with the mess.Next, we roll out a highly durable, weatherproof ridge vent membrane along the apex of the roof. This allows the roof space to breathe while keeping rain out. Finally, the ridge tiles are mechanically fixed into place using high-grade stainless steel screws and custom-fit clamps. This mechanical fixing guarantees that the tiles will not blow off, even during severe storms, ensuring an incredibly strong and lasting finish.

Meeting Local Building Regulations in Gravesham

When making structural changes to your roof, it is vital to ensure that all work complies with current UK building regulations. Under the latest British Standard guidelines (BS 8612), all new roofs are now required to use a dry fix system rather than traditional mortar. This rule was introduced to drastically improve structural safety and prevent ridge tiles from falling into the street or garden during high winds.As trusted local experts, we ensure that every ridge tile installation we complete in Northfleet fully adheres to the regulations set out by local building control. Furthermore, our dry ridge systems provide the mandatory roof ventilation required to mitigate condensation, keeping your home fully compliant, safe, and heavily insulated against the elements.
