Roofing in Whitstable
Tidy, Secure Edges with No Pointing
Looking for dry verge & dry hip in Whitstable? We work on homes across Whitstable and the surrounding area from our base in Kent, and every job starts with a proper look at the roof and a written price before any work is booked.
The verges are the edges of the roof at the gable ends, and the hips are the sloping joints where two roof slopes meet. On many older roofs both are finished with mortar, which cracks and falls away over time, leaving the tiles along the edge loose and letting water in.
A dry verge system replaces that mortar with interlocking caps fixed to the end of each row of tiles, giving a neat, uniform edge that needs no maintenance. A dry hip system does the same job on the hips, fixing each hip tile mechanically over a weatherproof roll. Both hold the edge tiles firmly in place and stop birds and wind-driven rain getting in.
