maximum protection
The traditional methods of securing the ridge,
verge, hip, and valley details of a roof with so
called wet trades are now being replaced in
modern roof construction in favour of the securityand flexibility offered by dry fix systems.
Experience has shown that when traditional mortar is used
to secure details such as the ridge and verge it will usually
fail during the life of the building leading to costly remedialwork to areas of a property which are notoriously difficult to
access. These wet trades are also time consuming, labour
intensive and are hindered by adverse weather conditions
such as rain and cold temperatures.
Dry fix systems can offer the installer considerable
advantages over traditional methods, providing high
performance, easy to fix, maintenance free solutions which
can not only speed up the job on site, but also offer long
term financial benefits.

Due to the nature in which the systems are fitted, there is no
need for the use of mortar, making the task of finishing the
verge quick, easy and clean, as well as making it possibleduring frosts and other adverse weather conditions.

compatible with a range of roof coverings. The SmartVerge
system is designed for use with large format interlocking
concrete tiles, including those with a deep profile. TheLinear Dry Verge system is intended for use with slates,
interlocking plain tiles and flat interlocking concrete tiles.
The systems are:
Fast and easy to fit in all weather conditions

alternative that saves you time, increases your efficiency
and delivers significant benefits to your customers.
