Dry Verge & Ridge Tiles in Wolverhampton & the West Midlands

The ridge and verge are the edges of your roof, along the top and down the gable ends, and they take the full force of the wind and rain. For years these tiles were held in place with mortar, but mortar cracks and crumbles over time, leaving tiles loose and your roof vulnerable. At Platinum Roofing Company, we fit modern dry verge and dry ridge systems across Wolverhampton and the surrounding area, for a finish that is far more secure and needs virtually no upkeep.

A dry ridge system mechanically fixes each ridge tile in place with screws and clamps rather than relying on mortar. This holds the tiles firmly against high winds, while a built-in ventilation strip allows air to flow through the roof, helping to prevent condensation and damp in the loft below. It is a stronger, longer-lasting alternative to the old mortar method, and it keeps performing year after year.

Dry verge caps do the same job along the gable ends, clipping neatly over the edge tiles to lock them in place and keep out wind, rain and pests. Both systems give your roof a clean, tidy finish and, once fitted, they need no repointing or maintenance. We can install dry verge and ridge on new roofs or replace failing mortar on your existing one. All of our work is backed by our 10 year guarantee.

With 30+ years of roofing experience behind us, we have fitted dry verge and ridge systems on countless properties across the West Midlands and Staffordshire. When you choose Platinum Roofing Company, you get a secure, weatherproof roof edge, honest advice and workmanship that lasts.
