Dry ridge systems, dry verge and dry fix roofing
Manthorpe has developed a range of dry verge, dry fix roofing and dry ridge systems that provide more robust, cost-effective alternatives to traditional mortar finishes.
Our fast-fit systems provide a mechanically secured solution that is far more efficient than traditional methods. Plus, our tried and tested products are designed to work with most types of roof tile to help you avoid long-term maintenance issues caused by exposure to weather and failing of mortar details therefore preventing damage over time.
Dry verge roofing
Protect one of the most vulnerable parts of your roof with Manthorpe’s dry verge roofing solutions, which have been developed to provide a neat, streamlined finish with maximum protection from wind and rain.
Our dry verge products are compatible with most slate and tile profiles and are available in a range of colours, ensuring a seamless, visually appealing finish.
Industry professionals rely on key design features of our dry verge roofing to promote rainwater run-off, draining moisture away from the gable wall limiting staining.
Dry fix systems and product testing
Dry ridge and hip systems, along with many other dry fix roofing products, have significantly increased in demand following the recent updating of BS 5534 and the subsequent creation of BS 8612 to oversee the design and installation of dry fix systems.
The installer can be reassured that Manthorpe’s dry fix systems have been independently tested at the BRE and exceed the requirements of BS8612.
