Dry Ridge Roof Systems in Hampshire
The roof dry ridge system is a roofing technique that incorporates durable stainless steel screws. These screws are used to fasten clamps between the joints of each roof tile, securely anchoring the tiles to the roof. The clamps provide a firm grip on the tiles, while waterproof unions beneath the tiles effectively channel and disperse rainfall, preventing water damage.

- Increased lifespan: By safeguarding the roof against moisture and preventing water ingress, Dry Ridge helps prolong the lifespan of the roof, reducing the need for premature replacements or repairs.

Dry Verge Roof Systems in Hampshire
The dry verge system offers a modern and efficient alternative to the traditional wet roofing method, which relies on sand and mortar.

Clay and concrete roof tiles are non-combustible and have a Class A fire rating. But a tile roof doesn’t make a home fireproof. However, tile roofing is safer than shingles, wood shake or metal because it allows air circulation under the tile, which reduces heat transfer to the loft during a fire.
