Dry Verge Systems Clondalkin
The verge forms the edge of your tiled roof where it meets the gable end, running along the outer slope line. For many years, mortar was the standard method of sealing this area. While mortar performs adequately initially, it typically begins to crack and deteriorate after a few years, allowing wind and rain to penetrate. Modern dry verge systems use interlocking, weatherproof caps that deliver superior long term performance.
How a dry verge system works
Plastic or composite caps clip securely over the end of each roof tile and interlock along the entire gable edge. These caps are mechanically fixed directly to the roof batten, eliminating any reliance on mortar for stability. The outcome is a completely sealed, weather resistant verge that requires no ongoing maintenance.
Benefits over traditional mortar
- Eliminates cracking and crumbling mortar dropping into your garden
- Completely weather tight, preventing wind driven rain from penetrating beneath tiles
- Stops birds and pests from entering at the gable end
- Most systems carry manufacturer guarantees of 10 years or more
- Smart, contemporary appearance in colours matched to your tiles
