Services / Ridges & Roofline

Ridges & Roofline

Loose ridge tiles and tired roofline boards can let weather in. We inspect, re-bed or upgrade them.

What we cover

  • Ridge inspection and re-bedding
  • Dry ridge upgrades
  • Fascias and soffits
  • Guttering

Signs to look out for

  • Loose or cracked ridge tiles
  • Mortar falling from the ridge
  • Rotten or damaged fascias and soffits
  • Overflowing or leaking gutters
  • Birds getting into the roof space at the eaves

What we do

We inspect the ridge and roofline, re-bed or upgrade ridges where needed, and repair or replace fascias, soffits and guttering. Where a ridge is bedded in mortar that keeps failing, we can talk through a dry ridge upgrade as an alternative.

What affects the cost

Every roof is different, so we quote after looking at yours. The main things that shape the price are:

  • The length of ridge or roofline involved
  • Whether ridges are re-bedded or upgraded to dry ridge
  • The condition of existing fascias and soffits
  • Access around the property

Quotations are free and there is no obligation.

Questions

Common questions

What is a dry ridge?

A ridge fixed mechanically rather than bedded in mortar. We can discuss whether it suits your roof.

Do you do guttering?

Yes — along with fascias and soffits.

Why does ridge mortar keep falling out?

Mortar weathers over time, especially on exposed roofs. Re-bedding or a dry ridge system are the usual options — we will explain both.

What are fascias and soffits?

The boards along the edge of your roof — fascias face outwards and carry the guttering, soffits face downwards. Damaged boards can let weather and birds in.

My gutters overflow in heavy rain — is that a roof problem?

It is often a blockage or a guttering issue rather than the roof itself. Clearing and repairing guttering is part of this service.
