Why Choose Us?

Why Do Traditional Mortar Roof Ridges Fail?

For decades, mortar was the standard method for securing ridge tiles. However, traditional mortar naturally degrades over time due to frost, driving rain, and natural thermal expansion. When the mortar cracks and crumbles, tiles become loose, leaving your roof vulnerable to gale-force winds and dangerous leaks.A modern dry ridge system completely removes the need for mortar. Instead, ridge tiles are mechanically fixed to the roof using durable screws, clamps, and waterproof unions. This creates an incredibly strong, weather-resistant barrier that stays firmly in place regardless of the British weather.
