The alternative to the traditional verge and ridge systems are a dry verge & ridge systems. It locks together without the use of cement mortar making it cheaper, quicker, and more reliable over the long term. A screw and clamp system holds tiles in position and waterproof joins divert water away.

Benefits of dry verge & ridge systems:

• Low maintenance
• Increased stability in poor weather conditions
• Flexible and will move to the subtle changes that can occur in the roof, such as thermal expansion and contraction
• Built in ventilation

• Regular inspections: Perform regular inspections of your roof to identify any signs of damage or wear. Look for cracked or missing shingles, loose flashing, sagging areas, or any signs of water damage.
• Clear debris: Keep your roof free of debris like leaves, branches, and dirt. Debris can trap moisture and cause damage to the roof over time.
• Maintain gutters and downpipes: Clean and inspect your gutters and downpipes at least twice a year. Ensure they are free from clogs and properly attached to the roof.
• Repair leaks promptly: If you notice any signs of a leak, such as water stains on the ceiling or walls, address it promptly. Locate the source of the leak and repair or replace the affected area of the roof to prevent further damage and potential mould growth.
• Use proper roofing materials: When replacing or repairing your roof, use high-quality materials suited to your roof type. Consult with professionals or roofing experts to ensure you choose the right materials for durability and longevity.
• Proper ventilation: Ensure your roof has adequate ventilation to prevent moisture buildup and heat retention. Proper ventilation helps extend the life of your roof and reduces the risk of damage caused by excessive heat or condensation.
• Trim overhanging trees: Trim back any overhanging branches that can potentially damage the roof during strong winds or storms.
• Avoid pressure washing: Avoid using pressure washers to clean your roof, as the high-pressure water can damage the roof surface. Instead, use a broom or a low-pressure hose to gently remove dirt or moss.
• Hire professional help when needed: For major repairs or roof replacements, it’s often best to hire professional roofing contractors. They have the expertise, tools, and knowledge to safely and efficiently complete the job

Several ways to identify whether your roof requires replacement:

1. Age: Roofs have a lifespan, typically 20 to 30 years, but it can vary depending on the material. If your roof is approaching or has exceeded its expected lifespan, it’s a sign that you may check it for replacement or repair.
2. Missing or damaged tiles: Look for any roof tiles that are cracked, curled, blistered, or missing. Damaged roof tiles expose the underlying structure to water and can lead to leaks.
3. Leaks and water damage: If you notice water stains on your ceiling or walls, it’s a clear sign of a roof problem.
4. Granule loss: Often, roof tiles shed their granules as they age, causing a sandy residue in your gutters. This can reduce the effectiveness of the tiles and indicate the need for replacement or repair.
5. Sagging or uneven roof: An irregular roofline or sagging sections suggest immediate structural issues. It’s best to call a roofing contractor and get your roof checked.
6. Algae or moss growth: Algae, moss, or mould pose severe risks to your health, whether inside or outside your house. If you can see such things, it indicates a moisture problem that needs addressing.
7. Damaged flashing: Cracked or deteriorating flashing around roof penetrations like chimneys and vents can lead to leaks. Ensure the flashing is in good condition.
8. Excessive energy bills: If your energy bills have unexpectedly increased, it could be due to deteriorating felt covering and/or lack of insulation.
