A dry ridge and dry verge system replaces the sand-and-cement mortar on your ridge and gable ends with mechanically fixed clips and caps. DG Roofing Services only fits Manthorpe systems — the leading UK brand — so your ridge and verge tiles stay secure in high winds without regular repointing.
Dry Ridge & Dry Verge in Darlington & the North East
Crumbling mortar along your ridge and gable ends is one of the most common causes of loose tiles, leaks and storm damage we see across Darlington and the North East. Once mortar cracks, water gets in, freezes, expands and pushes the bedding apart — until the wind finishes the job.
A dry ridge and dry verge system does away with mortar entirely. Each ridge tile and verge unit is mechanically clipped and screwed into place, so it stays put through frost, rain and high winds with virtually no maintenance.
We only fit Manthorpe — the leading UK manufacturer of dry fix roofing products. We won't cut corners with cheap, unbranded kits that discolour, become brittle or blow off after a few winters.
The ridge and verge go together: they're usually bedded in the same ageing mortar, so when one starts failing the other isn't far behind. Doing both at once means one set of access and a roof that's secure from top to bottom. Only need one? We do dry verge and dry ridge on their own too.
