The dry-fix roofing system is the mechanically fitted installation of ridge and hip tiles to your roof and is a British Standard requirement.
At JR roofing Lancs Limited we work to British Standard. We install dry-fix systems which includes the mechanical fixing of ridge tiles and verges, in keeping with BS5534.

In most cases with dry fix you will be required to replace your existing ridge tiles and our specialist local roofers can go through all your options.
At JR roofing Lancs Limited we provide the highest quality of craftsmanship with the upmost professionalism and always meeting British Standard.

Dry verge is a UPVC product used to finish the open gable ends instead of mortar. The verge is used to prevent water ingress and pests such as birds nesting in your roof space.
