Dry Verge Capping
Dry Verge Capping in Bridgend & South Wales
The verge is the sloping edge of the roof at the gable end. Traditional mortar verges crack and fall out over time. Dry verge capping replaces it with interlocking caps fixed mechanically to the roof.
Why verge mortar fails
Verges are exposed to driving rain and wind, and mortar slowly cracks and washes out. Once it goes, edge tiles can lift and water can get into the wall and roof.
How dry verge works
Each cap clips over the end tile and is fixed to the batten, creating a neat, uniform edge that does not rely on mortar. It is a common upgrade during repairs or a re-roof.
